jadin said:I think the reason it's described as "taking" and not "making" is that you aren't "creating" anything. You are simply interpretting something that was already created or aka made. That make sense?
i disagree with the comment that photography isn't a process of making.
surely, tourists only use cameras to "record the moment" (it's the belief a snapshot, regardless of photographic quality, has an inherent and absolute connection to the event), but to others, photography as you say is an "interpretation". i believe an interpretation is an action of making.
you take something, consider it in your consious mind, and you transfer it into a new format which can be used for other things. the solidification in the new format is the making.
i never know how to end a writing. hope i wasn't harsh :shock: just want to share what i've learned.
