Photography





Photography (from Greek) is the process, activity and art of creating still or moving pictures by recording radiation on a sensitive medium, such as a photographic film, or an electronic sensor. Light patterns reflected or emitted from objects activate a sensitive chemical or electronic sensor during a timed exposure, usually through a photographic lens in a device known as a camera that also stores the resulting information chemically or electronically. Photography has many uses for business, science, art and pleasure.

Photography has a massive effect on today's modern art as this can the fastest way of catching art as quickly as an eye can see it. For example one of the pictures i have chosen is a picture that was taken in the vietnam war of a girl and you can see how sad this image is but it also very powerful and get a strong emotion of sadness from the photo where as the other photo is calm and still and relaxing wich people will enjoy looking at and inspire them.
