Photography as an art of a Traveller
Does the camera follow the instinct of the photographer or does the photographer get waylaid by the lens of his own camera? An age old dilemma...as old as the art of photography itself. In essence, the same as the classic which came before- the hen or the egg riddle.
As we know, a picture speaks a thousand words which makes the struggle behind the lens worthwhile for any photographer. We all have a story to tell, and sometimes it is hard to recount an experience in words alone. For the times when any combination of 26 alphabets fail, we always have photographs to fall back on. Think of it as capturing a special moment and freezing it in time, because that's exactly what a camera does.
Even with the advent of smartphones with inbuilt camera lens, the old charm of the camera remains. True, the art of analog photography may belong gone and might soon be a term foreign to the next gen, but digital photography is here to stay.
Most travellers have those iconic photographs of sunset and sunrise against varied backdrops - be it mountains, beaches or cities.
