Photography

Photography can be defined by 'capture a moment using light and the control of a camera'. Photography dates back to the early 19th century, where a bulky film camera would of been used. Throughout the years, photography has changed very much, there is better camera technology such as smaller film cameras and the increasingly better technology of the digital camera. There is also better printing technology, which has made it easier for photographers express their feels through images.
