Man has been making images since the prehistoric era, and the images have continued to inspire and influence mankind in many different ways. The images have not only shown modern man the lifestyle of cavemen but also worked as a mirror of society and made man realise the good and bad things in life; in religion, they guided man to focus on higher powers; they've inspired man to create what previously seemed impossible; and they've also opened up a way into our world where communication without the use of words becomes possible.
Today, when we look around, we find out that our streets, television, and Internet are filled with images of animals, most of them cats and dogs; people killing each other over some issues; places being destroyed; daily soaps spreading negativity and untrust within families and society; advertisements for self-promotion or to increase consumption of goods; and images spreading cultural values or religion, etc.
Now, with the advancements in technology in cameras, making images has become easier and more accessible than it was five or six years ago. Today, everyone wants to click pictures all the time while on the go.
