Fine art photography

ThesisPhotography is an art. It is an art because the photographer creates art. The photographer creates art by capturing a unique image on film, by drawing the viewer's attention to an unexpected feature of an otherwise familiar or ordinary scene, by allowing the viewer to see through different eyes and so experience the world differently than before. In that manner does the photographer create art. It wasn't until the 19th century that photographic techniques were explored to stimulate paintings. The main reason for the evolution might have been a reaction against pictorial photographs. Two art movements are of importance when considering the above mentioned trend, namely the Dada and Surrealism art movements. I am a fine art photographer. I consider myself an artist, but not having the full ability to express my talents through painting. Although it is possible to express and develop my works of art with the assistance of photography and a little help from Adobe Photoshop. There are very few fine art photographers that were part of the Dada and Surrealism movements. However, only the best-known exponents of these movements will be discussed, for example Man Ray and Salvador Dali. There is no specific reason for specializing in fine art photography, only I prefer the freedom of creativity and expression, that fine art photography allows which, to a certain extent, are or could be lacking in other kinds of photography careers
