Photography is one of the mediums that lure many new artists due to it's relative ease of expression. With today's modern cameras, the knowledge of exposure values, aperture settings and focal lengths are not as essential as they were in the times of Ansel Adams. Just pick up the camera, point and shoot. What could be easier?
