Blog Prompt #1: Imagine a world without photographs. Describe what this world would be like.
A world without photographs would leave descriptions to the person giving them. Things would be difficult to explain to someone who has never seen that thing you're trying to explain.
Photography is an art form, a form of documentation. Without it, we couldnt show the world the beautiful things that we have seen. Photography is the capture of a moment. It allows us to look back at something and remember. So perhaps without it we would lose ourselves a lot easier, forget the things to we might want to remember...
Without photography there would always be a strive to be very exact. People would always try to recreate a moment. But now that photography is part of our lives, many artists thrive to be abstract. And because there is that option to be abstract we have been able to let photography develop into an art form.
I think that overall a world without photographs would be very annoying. I would just get sick of having to explain what I saw over and over again, to someone that really couldnt imagine what im trying to portray.
