Cameras define the arbitrary blind sight interweaved within today’s society.

Though once present as an art form and artistic perspective, photography lionizes the obscurity evident in a persona needing to “see it to believe it”. Often mistaken with perceptual beauty and interpretation, photography exemplifies the ultimate blind side developing within a society to come. Hand in hand with concepts such as: a declining work ethic and technological convenience, photography only captures what people are now too complacent to dream of themselves. In essence, photography = laziness.
My take on today’s perception of photography. Not that I have anything against it, cause photography is pretty legit.
Think about it, why do you think they call it “taking” or “shooting” pictures?
Taking something that isn’t yours = stealing.
Shooting something = murder.
Crime? You tell me.
“photography only captures what people are now too complacent to dream of themselves. In essence, photography = laziness.”
Following your logic, it’s like saying painting is laziness. And writing is laziness. Because instead of experiencing these things themselves, writers and painters merely, um, write and paint them? Is this what you’re trying to say?
Photography is different from merely taking photos. And your use of synonyms don’t make sense. Taking = stealing? Shooting = murder?
A failed attempt to sound clever, IMO.
