Theory #2 Light and Shadow

I really enjoyed the quote by Patrick Maynard on pg. 112 that says of photography, “a clever and economical invention- using abundant, free light to capture and permanently fix still images.” I thought that this was an interesting view to have of photography because it is something that is so easily overlooked. In essence, a photo is literally just the capturing of light at a certain moment in time, this is a beautiful way of looking at photography in a new way.
