Quote 1: “While a painting or a prose description can never be other than a narrowly selective interpretation, a photograph can be treated as a narrowly selective transparency.”
This quote suggests that paintings and written descriptions are subjective interpretations, and photographs are more objective representations that capture a moment as it is in reality. This makes photos less influenced by bias.
Quote 2: “Photographs are perhaps the most mysterious of all the objects that make up, and thicken, the environment we recognize as modern. Photographs really are experience captured, and the camera is the ideal arm of consciousness in its acquisitive mood.”
Photographs have a unique ability to freeze the human experience in time and make them physical. This trait allows for special moments to be preserved and shown to the world around us.
