The Art, the Science and the Practice



According to Wikipedia, Photography is the art, science and practice (ASP) of creating durable images by recording light or other electromagnetic radiation, either electronically by means of an image sensor or chemically by means of a light-sensitive material such as photographic film.

As far as can be ascertained, it was Sir John Herschel in a lecture before the Royal Society of London, on March 14, 1839 who made the word "photography" known to the world. But in an article published on February 25 of the same year in a German newspaper called the Vossische Zeitung, Johann von Maedler,
a Berlin astronomer, had used the word photography already. The word photography is based on the Greek φῶς (photos) "light" and γραφή (graphé) "representation by means of lines" or "drawing", together meaning "drawing with light".

Photography has many uses for business, science, manufacturing (e.g. Photolithography), art, and recreational purposes.

The BraveShooters Integrated Photography Resource Network is a corporate community of expert photographers licensed under the BraveShooters Network. We provide cutting edge technology, tips, training and technique that help community members master the art, the science and the practice of "drawing with light".

With access to a large tribe of other ASP Masters, braveshooters and fellow connoisseurs, there's plenty of insight to go around not to mention an endless resource pool to jump into. So whether you're getting the down low on the best photographers in Nigeria or asking fellow photography aficionados about current information, The BraveShooter will have you standing tall and aiming higher!
