Photography has drastically changed the lives of human beings today. Not a day passes, for most of us, without a photograph. There seems to be no need for any special occasion to take a photo. A good hair day needs a photo! Your cute little pet’s homecoming anniversary needs a photo for sure! “Photography is a way of feeling, of touching, of loving. What you have caught on film is captured forever… It remembers little things, long after you have forgotten everything.” says American photographer Aaron Siskind.
Photography has the real magic to capture the world’s beauty. Photos can speak instantly to the world, and our reminiscence happens in real-time. Every photograph has a story to tell. The photography era has enhanced our need to create, record, and remember. Cameras have become an indispensable part of our lives. It is curating our lives for recording and curating our lives. Precious moments were made into keepsakes, while moments we no longer wished to remember were discarded.
Photographs in their conventional way function as documentation, art, and an aid to our memories. It can freeze and capture a moment in its complete essence. Photography freezes the most meaningful moments in our lives to cherish them forever.
Photography enables us to see the world from different perspectives. It gives us a chance to admire and appreciate the most diverse scenarios and situations captured in a frozen moment. Photography is so powerful that it enables you to bring meaningful experiences to others in the form of captured images. It holds the information just as they are without much tweaking.
It is also a documentation of history for the future. A photograph preserves the trend and life of the time and becomes a piece of evidence for the future. It becomes a documentation of humanity, time and evolution. Photography has the power to influence the future by telling us about the past.
A photograph captures the inner self through an aesthetically appealing fabric. Photography, just like painting, involves the visual elements of line, shade and hues. The medium captures the perfect moment through its play of light, shade and hues. It becomes a language of expression where every photograph has a story to tell.
