Ps later became the meaning of photography.

Photography is only a means and a tool, not an end.

Whether it is shooting or late P, it serves the purpose. Photography is a process of achieving a goal, in which the more means or tools, the better.

In the later stage of photography, shooting or PS is the main method. Some photos have been unrecognizable, and whether they are still "photographs" is not a problem!

Later stage: There are many techniques and techniques in the film era. At the initial stage of film development, it can increase the sensitivity and negative effects. After the film is developed, you can use a knife and pen to modify the plate, color and print photos. The modern name is PS. Has always been an inseparable part of photography.

It must be understood that pressing the shutter is only a part of photography, and the later stage is also an important part of photography. Only photos (finished documents) are products and finished products of photography! Just pressing the shutter without taking pictures (pS) belongs to half-shooting, which may be properly called taking pictures.

A photographer without darkroom (later stage) is incomplete, and voluntarily giving up darkroom (later stage) is the lack of artistic creation means.

The so-called "work" is the real goal to be discussed. For example, how can news photography be considered a bad picture?

Finally, it is emphasized that photography is the whole process of taking pictures and making. Only creative photos are works of art.
