Photography is a visual art that allows us to capture and freeze a moment in time. But it's not just about seeing with our eyes and capturing what's in front of us; it's also about feeling and interpreting what we see. A photograph can evoke emotions, tell a story, and convey a message, all through the use of composition, lighting, color, and other elements. As a photographer, it's important to not only see the world around us but also to feel it, and then translate that feeling into our photographs.
