Is photography art?

Personally, they are different art forms, although they all express the author's creative intention in the form of pictures. Traditional art refers to painting, with brush and paper (or canvas and other carriers) as the media to express the author's subjective thoughts. On the other hand, photography has a strong realistic color. Except for special cases such as post-production with image processing software, everything in photographic works is very similar to their true colors, which is more objective and impartial than painting. This is the biggest difference between the two.
