Let’s Begin…
Our
eyes are practically magical, but they cannot see everything. For
instance, the naked eye cannot see the moment where all four of a
horse’s legs are in the air or the gradual life cycle of plants -- but
cameras can capture these moments. Bill Shribman gives examples where
photography can pick up where the eye leaves off.
But what might this phrase mean: "The camera certainly lies, but it tells the truth about the photographer."
