1. Photography is art. the composition and lighting could be perfect and framed such as the case with Ansel Adams. Ansel Adams went around the United States to show the world the beauty of the national parks. In the case of John Baldessari the opposite can be true as well. An illogical composition can be art for the fact that it is wrong.
2. Photography is a way of preserving a moment in time. People like remembering where they have visited or a special occasion and a picture has a way of taking that moment and saving it for future reference. Photography comes in handy when a person's memory fails him or herself. With the preservation of a moment in time, comes a picture that can be used by children to copy the image to varying degrees of accuracy. Or the image can be put on a slide and enlarged on a wall or screen.
3. Photography is a way to watch things grow. By taking pictures of a child at varying times over the course of his or her life one can see the physical changes of the person's body and how the person has changed where he or she lives.
