Fotografía

Fotografía, or photography in English, refers to the art and practice of capturing images using light, typically through a camera. This medium allows for the creation of visual representations of scenes, people, and objects by exposing a photosensitive surface, such as film or a digital sensor, to light. The term is derived from the Greek words “photos,” meaning light, and “grapho,” meaning to draw or write, thus translating to “drawing with light.” Photography encompasses a variety of techniques and styles, including portrait, landscape, documentary, and fine art photography, among others. It serves multiple purposes, from artistic expression and storytelling to documentation and scientific exploration. As a form of communication, photography can evoke emotions, convey information, and provide insight into different cultures and experiences, playing a significant role in media, advertising, and personal memories. The evolution of photography has seen significant technological advancements, leading to the digital era where images can be easily captured, edited, and shared globally.
