Photography
- What is Photography?
Photography is the science, art and practice of creating durable images by
recording light or other electromagnetic radiation, either electronically by means
of an image senser, or checmically by means of a light-sensitive materials such as
photographic film.

Photography was views as a purely technical process that records visible images by
light action on light-sensitive materials. The word photography comes from two
Greek words "photos" meaning light and "graphos" meaning writing. It was started in
the late 19th century, and from then it was not immediately considered as art.

Why a photographer is considered as an artist

photography as a process.
- once the artist discerns an important moment, and focuses his camera on it, and
click the shutter it becomes an art in photography.

texure, and composition to create a true work of art.
