The Art of Technology Through Photography
I consider myself a frustrated photographer, and may I take an emphasis on FRUSTRATED. Yup, this printer geek loves to take pictures – although the photos I take are not really superb.
But that is not what I would like to share; what I want to reflect upon on this post is the fact that photography has remained to be a rather unique form of art, regardless of the technological advances that has swept through the industry over the years.
If anything, technology may have even paved the way for the art of photography to become even better than it already is. With the advent of the digital age, and with it, digital photography, the artist that is the photographer has been given way more freedom and flexibility to express his or her art through the photos that they take.
Technology has also brought the art of photography even closer to the general public, and has given chances for more people to take great photos, regardless of whether they are professionals or not.
So, too, have the advent of even better inkjet printers and their accompanying ink. Looking at photo prints through the years, one cannot deny the amount of improvement that has occurred – from the grainy, seemingly lifeless, monochromatic images of the yesteryears to today’s vivid images that, if one were really, really imaginative, seem to be alive.
Technology has long been associated with something that is wholly academic, something that is devoid of feeling. If we were to look at what technology has brought into photography, though, one cannot help but think, hey, technology is more than just what it is being stereotyped to be. Technology is also art!
