In simple words- Photography is just Painting Through Light

--What is the use of Photography?
- Photography is a way through which you can show people the world through your eyes. It is like expressing yourself. It helps in seeing the world in a different manner.
- Photography is like time travel without a time machine. When you saw a photo after a long time, then you go back to that time when the photo was clicked and recognized all the good and bad moments.
- Photography can freeze the time. Time is one of the things on which humans don't have any control. But Photography is the medium that can pause a memory in the Flowing Time.
- And the most important use of Photography is, you can make money from it if you take it seriously. You can opt Photography as your career and become professional on it, and you can also generate side income from photography(as part-time) while sitting at your home.
{Note:I will talk on this topic in detail in my future articles}
--Who can become a Photographer?
Anyone can become a
Photographer. Anyone having a device that can capture a photo can become a
photographer. Photography was hard in the past time (80 s & 90 s), But after
the invention of the camera in the Phones, photography becomes easy. 20th
Century is the Golden era for photography, Due to Smartphones. In earlier time
cameras were too expensive, due to which very few people can afford a camera.
And due to this reason, people started thinking of photography as one of the
toughest careers.
But in 20th Century time is
changing very rapidly, cameras came into smartphones, which can be affordable
by maximum people. Smartphones are one of the biggest evolution in photography.
Smartphone cameras are giving tough competition to the DSLR’s, and smartphone
cameras are improving day by day. There is one Myth among the people that they
can click photos like professional only by the
DSLR, But in reality, smartphone camera has also the potential to click
photos like professional.
And there is one more
misconception that having a Smartphone or DSLR means you are a Photographer.
Photography is an art and you can not develop any form of art in one day. It
takes Time, Right Efforts, Hard Work, Complete Dedication and Lot’s of Practice
for becoming professional in Photography or any form of art.
So, at last- There is no
real meaning of Photography. Photography is what you make out of it by your
Hard work, Practice, Effort and a little bit of editing. Photography is very
easy but it takes time to achieve mastery on it.
