Explain "representation" and "representation" in photography respectively.

Any article will have a clear theme, and so will the pictures. However, because the pictures are taken from the scene and vivid and intuitive life scenes, it is easy to "lead the reader's thinking astray", thus ignoring the understanding of the photographer's main intention. Therefore, before pressing the shutter, the photographer should consciously reorganize these scenes according to his own intention, thus effectively inducing the audience to follow your thoughts naturally after watching the superficial images or plots. From the reader's point of view, in addition to watching the most intuitive things directly reflected in the picture, we should fully understand the photographer's shooting intention through the way the photographer organizes the picture. Communication through pictures requires the joint efforts of photography and reading. The success of a picture depends on whether the two sides can successfully complete the process of transmitting thoughts and feelings through this picture. This is a photo show.

As one of the forms of visual expression, photography naturally has the problem of reproduction. Through photography, the details of the subject can be accurately reproduced, so there is no doubt that the realism of photography can be believed. Some people even think that the so-called "good photo" is to accurately reproduce what the eyes see, which is really similar to picking up the photo and comparing it with the real thing. However, there are other reasons for agreeing with the realistic reproduction of photography besides appearance. That is to say, the similarity itself exists between the visual image of the objective object by the eyes and the photos taken by the camera. This point has been studied as early as18th century, and even found that the imaging principle of human eyes is consistent with that of cameras, so photos can be said to be image copies formed on the retina of eyes. It's just that the eyes can't fix the image forever. Photography can replace the eyes to fix the image. Therefore, photography has completed another function that the eyes can't complete-image recording. There is no doubt that human beings believe in this fact and the realistic reproduction of photography.
