Introduction
Photography
Photography is the art of recording an image in history which we
find captivating, amusing,or thought-provoking. And, unlike many
other mediums, it provides us with a "true-to-life"
image, which is not too much different than to what our own eyes
would see. This art can
only take a split-second to record.
A photograph is life distilled and preserved for eternity. An
expressive face, a fleeting
moment in nature, an abstract shape- these are the fundamentals
of photography. A
photograph conveys, in a way no words can, a sense of the
mystery and beauty of
life, nature, and the achievements of mankind.
