Photography
Photography is fascinating. A click of a button captures a single moment in history. This being a moment in time that has never occurred before and will never happen again. Photography is documentation; it is a way to preserve the past. Anyone can do it. Just clicking the button is all it takes—looking is not required.
While I believe that anyone can enjoy taking pictures, there is definitely an art and skill aspect of photography that draws a barrier between any average camera lover and a professional photographer. As for me, I have never considered myself a photographer. I am more interested in the keep sake aspect of what a photo can offer, rather than the technicalities. One day, I would love to learn all about cameras and the art/science of photography, but as for now, I just like to take pictures.
