1 picture speaks a 1000 words. Photography is shaping today's society through creating empathy and power. Politics use it to justify war crimes, people use it to feel loved and liked on social media, nature uses it to explain its power and limitations, scientists use it to conceptualize theories and facts... Photography is shaping our thoughts, visions, ambitions, power, feelings.. it is shaping us!

Of course! This is the whole point of photojournalism. Imagine not seeing photos from hot points of the world - wars, famine, etc...

Not only that - the simple exchange of knowledge that takes place when viewing a photograph is irreplaceable - one gets to know about other people's lives, the way they work, live, play. Every photograph changes us and enriches our perspective of the world; makes us more informed, more understanding; makes us feel and share with people that we don't know, despite different cultural backgrounds and without borders. And this is great.

Yes, of course! Now a days, there are several types of social media have been developed which are followed by all over the world through the internet. So people can see the one corner of the world from another corner. It means the world have been become narrow due to science and technology. In this way the people are using their photo in social media then spreads all over the world. It means they are spreading their culture and costumes, social norms and values. Then some followers are following according they likely. It means they are influenced. Some photographs can be very artistic can expresses the great massage.

Absolutely. Images are among the top media formats that is widely available across the internet most specially on social media platforms. It's one of the most effective ways to advertise, share ideas, or inform the public of whatever content the publisher is intending to deliver. Images are easily noticed specially if it has an appealing aura whether through effective composition or a combination of digital enhancements.

Our notion of societal standards can be viewed as a result of either good or bad photography. It is up to the individual to derive his/her own interpretation of what's being portrayed and its symbolic meaning inherent in that photograph!!

Photography is the only thing that can capture and show something that we never can really see with our naked eyes. It can either bring out beauty in this world, or show only destruction. And it's importance in today's society is unimaginable. People usually connect their emotions to things at a visual level before even consciously thinking. And this kind of psychology is what makes photography's role so much more relative to our everyday lives.

Nothing denotes a stronger message than visual messages, may it be drawings, paintings or pictures. Photography can turn a man's expression into a precise description of the whole picture. With vivid photography, sometimes words are no longer needed

Yes of-course photography if meaningful itself describes a story. In my observation if a photographer focus on object with environment and surronding the object will speak itself and the viewer will feel the hieght of that nature by clearity.
