“Is photography art or science?” is one of the debating questions raised in society long before the rage of photography among humans (Hariman & Lucaites, 2016). The answer is limitless but it can be said that indeed photography is an art and photographers are artists. Just as a painter uses colours, brushes, and canvas, photographers use camera and filming tools for showing their artistry. Photographers are considered gems because of their passion, creativity, and artistry towards the profession. One cannot deny that photography is trending all over the world and is taking the profession to another level. However, no one attempts to take a look into the mind of photographers. It is not as easy a task as it sounds. The mind of the photographers gets puzzled sometimes and all their life revolves around the cameras, lights, and scenes. They take the tasks as their ultimate goal and perform their best to make people smile by seeing the art.

Accuracy has the utmost importance in the life of photographers as they hold their accuracy within their pieces of work. The mind of photographers is always on a hunt for perfect scenery and natural entities. Though this needs dedication and passion to uphold the art of photography. It must be said that a great photographer’s strings never go out of tune. Their minds are always in a search to sort all the chaos of the world into photographs that bring clarity to the free-for-all of life (Allen & Armitage, 2017). Through their creativity and perfection, they distill the mayhem and beauty breathing around us. Despite the ups and downs happening in the world, such artists engage people’s attention to the artifacts, people miss in their busy life. It is hard to find what is ongoing in the minds of photographers as they always function to bring out the best among the pools and polish them with their skills and artistry. Therefore, it will not be a mistake to say that they teach people to look again and harder through their eyes and minds. Be it a tragedy or a moment of joy, they continue their struggle and job with the same passion and enthusiasm. Another important point is their willpower to show people what needs to be seen and to be known to society. While performing their job, photographers have to keep several things in their mind such as the perfection of the light, resolution, and so on. Even if it can be difficult at times, photographers set their minds to capture the beauty and ubiquity across the surroundings. Thus, this madness and compulsion to convey messages make the photographer a real artist.
