Photographs are concerned chiefly with appearances. They are deceptively nuanced but essentially narrow. #photography

[Adam Inglis @ATS3113Inglis]

The same can be said of any kind of documentary. All of which are just the director/photographer's "version" of reality.

[Adam Inglis @ATS3113Inglis]

Anyone who thinks a photograph is a "true representation of reality" is seriously misguided. #photography

[Adam Inglis @ATS3113Inglis]

They control every aspect of their depiction. Angle, lighting, depth of field, and crucially - that moment the shutter clicks. #photography

Reflecting on photographer-subject power dynamics. I think the photographer always has power over their subject. #photography

A vain politician runs for the presidency, short on specifics but long on bluster. Sound familiar? https://t.co/rprv4StMpx

"There’s a kind of power thing about
the camera".. "You’re
carrying some slight magic which does something [to the subject]" - #DianeArbus

[Adam Inglis @ATS3113Inglis]

While the predatory power of photography was problematic for #SusanSontag - for #DianeArbus - that power was a kind of magic.

[Adam Inglis @ATS3113Inglis]

Reflecting.. #SusanSontag & #DianeArbus both recognized the power of photography & lived experience. They just came to different conclusions
