Chapter 9: The Photograph as Fine Art

When photography is a fine art, we see it with more of the lines, texture, form of the photograph. Some nude photographs are seen not with the individual but with the way the photographer captured the lines, texture, and the form of the object. People, history, or places are not what is important in this kind of photography, but the picture itself. When the reader looks at the photograph, it looks for a message or text, but can only see the beauty in the picture not really much more. They get lost in the dark negative space and such.
