Why is photography important

I have always loved photography, it really helps me look at things through a different lens, literally! Photography helps me look at the world differently and helps me focus on the things I want to focus on. Photography helps show people what is important to me that’s why I love it so much.

When I went to Scotland and England over the summer the places were very new to me and I really wanted to capture the culture in a different way. Anyone can take pictures and the great thing about it is that there is no right or wrong. Photography can help communicate issues, ideas and helps capture memories.

When I look back at all the photos I can immediately go back to that day and replay it in my head. Photos are like reminders to the past and in terms of history, it is very important for our ancestors to see what we created and then for them to look back and help improve the world. Photos have enabled us to understand how humans lived in the past and we were able to make some sort of outline of life so far with the help of photos. I think photography is a form of writing. “Pictures are worth more than 1000 words.”
