Sontag deeply discussed the essence of photography, including whether photography is art, the interaction between photography and painting, the relationship between photography and the real world, and the predatory and aggressive nature of photography.

This is a discussion, a calm and sharp anatomy. Wonderful, dazzling. Sontag has always been famous for her serious style, but her sarcasm has also been fully played in this book.

Extended data:

The word photography comes from Greek Φ Φ Phos (light) and ρ Φ ι graphics (painting, sketch) or ρ Φ Φ? Graphê together means "painting with light". Photography refers to the process of recording images with some special equipment. Generally, we take photos with mechanical cameras or digital cameras.

Sometimes photography is also called photography, that is, the process of exposing a photosensitive medium by using the light emitted or reflected by an object. Someone once said an incisive language: the photographer's ability is to transform the fleeting ordinary things in daily life into immortal visual images.
