Photography is the art and technology of producing images on photosensitive surfaces, and its digital counterpart. It is also the process of making pictures by means of the action of the lights.
A camera is an object used for taking pictures.

- Aperture- We adjust the aperture to allow more or less light hit the digital sensor or film.
- Shutter speed- It controls how long the light comes through the aperture to the digital sensor or film.
- ISO- It is the sensitivity to light of the sensor or film.
That's just a brief introduction to what photography is all about.
Some people think photography is limited to you taking a nice picture but I will like to tell you that photography is more than that. The posture of the person to be snapped sometimes determine which angle the person handling the camera will stay. Whether you will bend or straight straight in taking a picture depends on the height of the object/person you want to take his/her picture.
Pictures speaks louder than we can hear. The picture of NATURE taken by someone is meaningless in another person's sight who doesn't have the knowledge of photography. Do you even know that picture can be used to explain a particular concept/story with any word written on it. That's the power of photography.
