About This Quote
Photography is an art that uses optical instruments to make images of scenes or objects. Photography is used to express ideas, emotions, or observations. The camera is not an instrument that teaches people how to see without a camera. The human eye, at least my eye, is capable of capturing most anything I want it to. Photography most definitely enhances the natural beauty of the world by capturing it in an artistic form.
