What does photography mean?

Photographic works are visual art works that photographers capture and process the scenery, people and things they see through cameras. Photographic works can be static or dynamic, which can not only express emotions, but also convey ideas. Photographic works usually present a high degree of realism and beauty. Reading the world through the lens and recording the atmosphere and history at that time is an important way for people to understand and record their lives.

Photographic works are of great significance in today's society. Through the recording of photographic works, people can feel the changes of culture, humanities and history, and understand the role played by society and individuals. At the same time, photography has also become an important form of expression in the fields of fashion, advertising and media, which makes people feel the information conveyed by products or activities more intuitively and has great market value.

In the process of shooting and creating photographic works, photographers should not only have a strong sense of art, but also have relevant technology and knowledge. Only through constant practice and research, and mastering enough technology and knowledge, can we obtain excellent photographic works. In the modern society of sustainable development, photographic works should pursue more value, and need to be combined with the needs of environmental protection, society and public welfare, so as to make contributions to promoting social progress and healthy development through photographic works.
