Fotografía

Fotografía is the Spanish term for “photography.” It refers to the art, science, and practice of creating images by capturing light, either digitally or on light-sensitive surfaces such as film. The word itself comes from the Greek words “photos,” meaning light, and “grapho,” meaning to draw or write, thus translating to “drawing with light.” Photography encompasses various techniques, styles, and purposes, including portrait, landscape, documentary, and commercial photography, among others. It plays a significant role in communication, storytelling, and expression, allowing individuals to capture moments, convey emotions, and share experiences visually. Overall, photography serves as both an artistic medium and a tool for documentation and exploration of the world.
