Reading Week 6

The part of this reading that I found most interesting would have to be the part on digital photography. I am an avid user of digital photography. I literally take my digital camera everywhere. B & G claim that with the introduction digital photography that the picture and the concept of taking pictures have lost the realness that they used to possess. I really do not agree. Digital photography takes the realness and the meaning of photos to a whole new level. They provide those taking the pictures and those looking at the pictures with many more options and alternatives than the old way of taking pictures. To say that digital photography poses a threat is an interesting stance but I believe a little harsh. Technology is always going to be catching up and passing us. Why not enjoy the benefits of the new digital photography. I believe it evolved for a reason.
