The meaning of photography

My brother recently became obsessed with photography out of nowhere, and even bought a SLR camera to capture scenery everywhere. I kept practicing my photography skills, and when I went back during the Chinese New Year, I would always use his camera to take pictures of people. As an outsider, I came to know a special term for photography: large aperture. I haven’t taken a family photo for a long time, so I took advantage of the Spring Festival when everyone gathered together to take a family photo. The family portrait still has its profound significance, and it still has its unshakable historical status. During the Chinese New Year, the whole family sat together and posed, just like a traditional photo, with my parents sitting in the front and the three of us siblings standing in the back. At the beginning, we stood up, because no one was taking pictures, so everyone posed. The eldest brother checked the effect through the camera test, and from time to time gave instructions: move to the left, move to the right. Directly opposite us, a table was placed in front, and a box was found to raise it. Then the camera was placed on it, the countdown was adjusted, and the photographer quickly entered the frame. After taking the photo, I adjusted the effect. I took several shots and picked the best one.

I found that the whole process of taking photos was also a good memory for the whole family. I adjusted the camera and counted down, and then the whole family waited for the photographer to come into the frame in a hurry, trying their best to look natural and kind, with a classic click. , the picture is frozen at this moment. After I washed it out and looked at it again, I looked at it with interest, as if I were appreciating a beautiful painting.

Taking this photo again after many years, you can see the traces of time in the comparison of the photos. My parents have grown older, wrinkles have appeared on their faces, and silver hair has grown on their heads. We have also grown up, from the tenderness of childhood, to the youth of youth, to the determination of adulthood. The meaning of home is reflected in one family photo after another, and each photo increases the cohesion of a family.

? Although we are all in the electronic age, I still have a special liking for developed photos. I prefer the sense of presence of flipping through a photo album. This form of existence as an object is more memorable. When you see the photos, you may be thoughtful or smile knowingly.

The meaning of photos with a sense of ritual is always given its due historical status by history, which is different from our usual casual photos. For example, wedding photos, family photos, and graduation photos are the summary and commemoration of a period. People who use cameras will take pictures carefully and capture every interesting and unforgettable moment. It may be funny, it may be serious, it may be fleeting. Good photos require the photographer's creativity and the cooperation of the right time and place.

?Every photographer has a pair of eyes that discover beauty, the physical strength to carry a stand, the concentration to keep the lens from shaking, and the various postures shown by working hard to take a good photo. shape.
