Is it possible to do anything with photos?

Taking pictures is all about recording, maybe recording life, maybe recording problems encountered in work. Like a friend of mine, he knows nothing about photography and is certainly not interested, but taking hundreds of photos every day is naturally just a simple job need.

When we want to create a beautiful photo without recording, we must start to create it. Since it involves creation, we will inevitably want to promote our works and let more people see them. At this time, we may be more concerned about how others evaluate our work.

When we talk about photos, it's not just the photos themselves.

Photographs are different from different artistic creations such as sketches, paintings and sculptures. It does not start from scratch, but captures the existing pictures through the shooting equipment in hand and the shooting parameters adjusted by itself. At the beginning of the birth of photography, many people firmly believed that photography had nothing to do with art, but at best it could only be a technology, a technology about reproduction. Yes, painting is an interpretation of reality, while photography is just a copy of reality. Anyone can do it as long as they master the basic camera operation skills.

In fact, there are many theories and opinions about the meaning of photos, which are usually related to the subject matter or the way of making photos. Today, most cameras can automatically record and capture very detailed images on sensors without very professional skills. Even the complicated later stages in the past (whether dark room or bright room) can be completed with one click in the app.

Later, it became simple and the photos became unreal. It is no longer just a cold copy of the real scene, but adds more photographers' feelings, making the photos full of personal style and the picture become a scene in the eyes of photographers.

The lens projects a copy of the real world on the back of the camera box, and the negative or sensor on the back of the box mechanically records a two-dimensional copy of the world. Both film and digital information are stored in the memory card. We capture not only the planarization of space, but also the unique time. We draw it as a rectangular plane covered with colored and harmonic particles. When we see this plane, vision will tell us some stories of this scene and what happened at that time.

We can make the same picture with painting and AI, but the result may not really reflect the mood we wanted to record at that time.

This is a photograph. The photo we are talking about contains some facts. It is indeed a two-dimensional copy of the world we see. The content of a photo may come to different conclusions because of the different perspectives chosen by the photographer, but the photo will not lie and will always be true.
