Photography isnt an art and it will never be. Why?
* Its about machine and additional lenses- your money-
* Its about your editing- your money-
*Its about the places you can travel- your money-
*Its about models you can use- your money and sometimes free -
*It is very very very little about the moment you can catch- they mostly edit this or use more money over it, if you dont know it just google original places-
*Its very less about concept when it comes to clicking, rest of the concept just for business.
*Art is only can be done for passion and love, it requires large amount of time, alot of personal skills, ideas, feelings, imagination,creativity and joy. its not about clicking an expensive machine to clowns at fancy places then editing everything-
*Anything done in purposes of getting fame and profit isnt truly an art and never gonna be.-this goes for everything-
*Its a hobby that talentless and talented people may both consider as an art.
Just search a beautiful lake in da and search it in google maps, watch how they capture Β beautiful wild life shots and videos. Its gonna be suprising.
30 shots in a second nice machines right? much skill such edit.

Interesting how you say photography isn't art, when you've posted photography yourself. Some of which isn't even yours.
And if photography truly isn't art, then why is there a category on here for it?

"Anything done in purposes of getting fame and profit isnt truly an art and never gonna be."
Are you implying that if it involves computers or "machines," it's not art? Better take these two down then. Because by your logic, any work that's digital isn't art, right?
Your logic would also include animation. And I did not spend 5 years in cartoon hell, suffer multiple breakdowns, stay up working until dawn for several weeks straight, drawing 1500+ pages until my fingers went numb, and earned a BFA degree...Only to be told by some hypocritical thieving art-snob that what I'm doing for a hobby AND a living isn't art.
Just because it costs money, uses technology, and we get paid to do it β it's not art. And if you don't own it, then you can't post it.

TL;DR: You can't upload photos you don't own.

Sure. We'll watch you get sued when we contact the original owners of those photos.

>βPhotography isnβt art!β
>is on a site with an entire category dedicated solely to photography
>has photography in their own gallery
>has a disclaimer on a few photos: βi dont claim anything about this photo. I do not own the photo.β
>gets called out for their bullshit
>can't think of any rational response, only replies with: "tldr dce"
...If it was TL;DR, then why bother responding anyway?
And unless you would like to get sued, I would suggest removing any art from your gallery that you don't own.

lmfao are you serious? what do you consider ART then? I bet youre the kind of person who only draws physically...you know pencil and paper cost money too right? And if you want to improve then you will begin considering other ways to express your ideas on paper by using different media which costs MONEY too.
If your issue is seriously that photography costs "money" then what is your response to digital artists? painters?
All forms of art can be expressed with or without money or supplies, but please do not come to my page and tell me that something I believe is not so.
* Its about machine and additional lenses- your money-
~~~(Machine and additional lenses sounds a lot like expensive pens, paper, lead, computer programs, ink, paint... need i go on?)
* Its about your editing- your money-
~~~(Editing has nothing to do with money, and more with skill. If you think editing is simply a matter of money how about I buy you Photoshop and Lightbox for a day and see what you do?)
*Its about the places you can travel- your money-
~~~(Places you travel???? I take pictures right here in my shitty ass suburban neighborhood. If you have to rely on travel to take good photos then you're really not thinking hard enough or trying hard enough.)
*Its about models you can use- your money and sometimes free -
~~~(Models dont cost money unless you WANT to pay for them. It is really easy to find people as models that dont want payment...this point is silly.)
*It is very very very little about the moment you can catch- they mostly edit this or use more money over it, if you dont know it just google original places-
~~~(Photography is so much more than a google search... You are grasping at straws here. It is all about the moments each person can catch with their own eyes; money has nothing to do with the raw image of a photographers eye)
*Its very less about concept when it comes to clicking, rest of the concept just for business.
~~~(again, clicking is legitimately just like moving a pencil. You have to know how to use your tools...)
*Art is only can be done for passion and love, it requires large amount of time, alot of personal skills, ideas, feelings, imagination,creativity and joy. its not about clicking an expensive machine to clowns at fancy places then editing everything-
~~~("Art is only can be" Nice grammar. Again... Photography is just a medium of expression... You have no basis for your opinion at all yet feel the need to bully photographers)Β
*Anything done in purposes of getting fame and profit isnt truly an art and never gonna be.-this goes for everything-
~~~( ARTISTS NEED TO MAKE MONEY???? We arent doing it FOR money, we are just doing it as a profession because we dont want to fucking starve? What is the difference between this and a career except I am doing what I love?)
*Its a hobby that talentless and talented people may both consider as an art.
~~~(This is the first thing you said that even has a semblance of truth.)
You cannot prove your points, you are simply stating your opinion.....Which is fine, but you are also attacking me, and my passion.
TL;DR Photography is not about making money any more than other art mediums are. It is a profession.

Did you notice that they're a hypocrite? Oh, and they're an art thief too because some of those they claim they don't even own!
So fun to hear an art thief talk like they know what's art and what isn't.

"Yeah sure in your case whatever makes you sleep at night."
They said because their shitty brain doesn't have anything to defend their logically fallacious arguments about Photography

It depends. If thought is put into it it is. If it's just people taking pictures of themselves in the mirror with their cellphone I don't really consider that art. But then again it just depends.

thats so stupid! i think photography can sometimes be more beautiful than any painting becuase it captures the exact beauty of the moment, not the beauty you see in your eyes so eveyone knows and appreciated the beauty about them more often. (i wish i could be a good photographer) my dad's brillant, he'll actually stoip the car if were on a road trip if he sees a cool flower or something he wants to take a picture of, he's not a pro or anything but he's still brillant, my entire house is full of pictures you would think came with the frames :3 makes me proud XD
