Today I started a new book called The Art of Photography because, for genius hour, I wanted to learn how to take good pictures the correct way.
The first chapter, "an approach to personal expression", talks about how photography is a form of non-verbal communication. It mentions artists, singers, dancers, and says that photography was granted it's spot on the list as a language most can understand. The word photograph has a much deeper meaning than it's usage. "The photograph says it all; nothing else is needed."
A photograph should raise questions, tell a story, or remain mysterious. Also, the beauty is its realism which makes it apart from all other art forms. The first step is to find out what interests you have and what methods you will use to express yourself.
The section ends here and leaves a good impression on me to want to keep reading. I assume the book will start to explain what methods are used to generally create good photography.
