There is a misconception of what is photography is really about. There are people who have forgotten the purpose of photography and then there are those who did not even know the purpose in the first place. Whether it's camera basics or professional-level photography, people have become ignorant of the true meaning and purpose of this amazing art. I believe that this thing has ruined the professional photography industry. I do believe that there is a lot of creativity out there. Young photographers tend to capture good photos and they are very creative, but most of them still lack the fundamental viewpoint and basic construction.

I believe that each photo speaks for itself but when people will look at these new types of photos and then they would be just that “photos”. No one would be able to see the story behind them. Those photos won’t speak to anyone. The purpose of this book to give a simple explanation of camera basics and tips on how to get started in different photography fields, from settings to take your pictures. , It is more like a photography course in just a few pages. This can make it easier for young photographer to up their game and take awe-inspiring and amazing photographs. It not just random information on photography clammed together.
