“Photography records the gamut of feelings written on the human face, the beauty of the earth and skies that man has inherited, and the wealth and confusion man has created. It is a major force in explaining man to man.” ~Edward Steichen
I agree with this quote. Photography is used for so many different purposes. It captures moments and memories that would otherwise be lost. And it is something that can show such a great amount of emotion with only the press of a shutter button. The part of his quote about the human face rings the most true for me. When photos aren't staged, you can capture a person's innermost thoughts just by a single expression or action. Photography is such a diverse art that remains personal and interesting no matter how many pictures are taken.
