INQUIRY #1

There are always two people in every picture: the photographer and the viewer." 

- Ansel Adams


As much as I think that this is very true, I also believe that sometimes there is one or the other. In some photos, a photographer may only be taking it for their enjoyment; hoping no one will ever see it. For example, Vivian Maier took thousand of photos (AMAZING PHOTOS) that no one ever saw but her up until a few years ago, she had no viewers. While others take pictures to cause a viewer to feel something. Not to mention that a photographer may be wanting to convey a thought or feeling that someone may never understand/experience.
