Photography

 

The essential purpose of photography is communication.  From the moment of its birth, photography had a dual character—expression and as a powerful scientific tool.

 

The term photography comes from two words Photo meaning Light and Graph meaning to Write. 

Photography means light writing.

 

Photographs bear witness to a human choice being exercised in given situation. A photograph is a result of the photographer's worth recording that this particular event or this particular object.
