Photography is the art and science of capturing images by recording light, using either electronic sensors or chemical processes with light-sensitive materials like film. It spans diverse applications, from scientific and industrial uses to artistic expression and recreational activities. Central to photography is the camera, which uses a lens to focus light onto a recording medium during an exposure. Innovations like the camera obscura, the invention of photographic film, and advances in digital technology have shaped its evolution.

Early photographic processes, including daguerreotypes and calotypes, paved the way for modern chemical and digital photography, with digital imaging now dominating the field, particularly through smartphones. Techniques range from black-and-white to color photography, employing various methods to manipulate light and composition for creative or practical purposes. Photography remains a versatile and transformative medium, blending art, history, and technology.
