PHOTOGRAPHY
PHOTOGRAPHY
The word Photography literally means 'drawing with light', which derives from the Greek photo, meaning light and graph, meaning to draw.
Photography is the process of recording an image – a photograph – on lightsensitive film or, in the case of digital photography, via a digital electronic or magnetic memory.
Factors that determine your choices are:
What you want the photo to look like.
How much light is present.
How sensitive you set your sensor (we’ll get to that.)
