“Photography deals exquisitely with appearances, but nothing is what it appears to be.”~Duane Michals.
Do you agree or disagree with this quote? Why?
I disagree with this statement, because some things ARE what the seem to be. It would be more accurate to state " Not everything is what it seems to be." But there is only so much we can fake with a camera. I can make someone look like they are being stepped on, when they are not, but i still need to photograph those people.
With a camera, i can take an ordinary house and make it look dark, or i can make it look warm and inviting.... but in the image you still see a house.
