1 Photography
In its early stages during the late 19th century, photography was
viewed as a purely technical process, that of recording visible
images by light action on light-sensitive materials. In facts, it is
very name from the Greek word “photos” (meaning light) and
“graphos” (meaning writing).
The Photographer as Artist
Focusing a camera at a subject
and clicking the shutter is
photography as process.
Discerning a significant moment
or a unique expression, framing
it in the camera viewfinder with
an eye for composition, and
then clicking the shutter is
photography as art.
The Photographer as Artist
In a pictorial shoot, the
photographer may position
lighting, modified the lens setting, or
use filters to create an effect he or
she has conceptualized beforehand.
It becomes clear how the
photographer has captured the
elements of form, color, light and
shadow, texture and composition to
create a true work of art.
