What is photography?

Probably many of you have asked yourself this question at some point without finding the right answer. Should
photography be an art, a science, an interesting passion or just a simple job?

Photography is an art in the true sense of the word, even if there are still disputes based on this subject, because there are
voices that believe that photography is a mechanical reproduction of reality and imitation can not be considered a form of
artistic manifestation.

The meaning of the term "photo" is variable depending on the angle from which you look at it.
Ex:
• If you are a teenager, photography for you means a picture, a selfie or a landscape that you liked, which you will later post
on Facebook or Instagram.
• If you like photography and want to understand a few things you will be shocked by how many technical things are behind it,

Photography is the way some people, especially professional photographers manage to convey a message through their photos.
A person or an object can be highlighted depending on the angle of the photo, the color palette, the light and the shadows .
