A few days ago shared with you some of the photos I took over the weekend if you haven't seen it yet check it out here. It seems to be a bit of a theme at the moment (this weekend I will post about a different topic ) I was thinking about what makes me love taking photos so much. Here are a few of the reasons I came up with.
1.It allows you to capture things.
One of the things I love about photography is being able to capture exactly how things were. It is kind of hard to put into words but it is almost like a different kind of memory. You can capture the expression on someone's face when you have just given them something and when you look back on it, you remember the way you felt and all sorts of other details about that moment. Things you would have otherwise forgotten.
2.You can share your memories with other people
Photography is interesting in this way because it allows other people to kind of see how you see the world. You can share things from your point of view.
3.You can share your photos with friends and family.
This is similar to point 2 but instead of showing them the world from your point of view you could be showing them where you went on a trip or what happened somewhere when they were not there.
4.Photos last forever.
Photos last forever (or a really long time, depending on how careful you are with them). If you are careful and keep all your photos in a safe place (one that you will actually remember) you can look back on them when you are older and be reminded of things you had forgotten.
I could go on and on with reasons why I love photography but I think I will stop there for today. Let me know in the comments what you love about photography.
