Functions of/metaphors for photography
-To collect a photograph is to collect the world
-The photograph is a book, obviously the image of an image
-by converting experience into an image, a souvenir
-picture taking is an event in itself
-the camera is an observation station
-like a car, a camera is a predatory weapon
-it is a thin slice of space and time
ect.
-Photography can be both positive and negative, depending on the photograph and/or the experience. Photography is complicated. We view photography as an act of capturing a memory or an experience. You can look back at a picture and re-feel the moment or remember something that you have forgotten. Pictures are also a way of sharing your experiences with someone else using more than just words.
