A photographer took a beautiful picture. Is it a photographic work?

Before answering this question, make clear the concepts of photography and work.

A work is an intellectual achievement of literary, artistic or scientific nature produced by the author in his creative activities, which is original and reproduced in a certain tangible form. Including photographic works of art, that is, photos, whether in digital storage form or printed photos.

Photography refers to the process of recording images with some special equipment. Generally, we take photos with mechanical cameras or digital cameras. Sometimes photography is also called photography, that is, the process of exposing a photosensitive medium by using the light emitted or reflected by an object.

Judging from the two definitions, photographic works only involve the creative achievements of creative tools, which does not mean that the creator is an amateur or a professional. As long as you shoot it yourself, it's all works!

Mobile phone photography and camera photography are both photographic works. Everyone can shoot their own style with different horizons. At present, it is the era of national photography. I believe everyone can produce excellent works. Why can't it be called photography?
