What do you see when looking at a photograph? Do the colors intrigue you or the setup? How often do you stair at it till you see something no one has seen on it yet? The experience is the same as looking at a painting, because as some important person once said we do not take a picture we make a photo. So in a sense once you master your craft no matter what it is, you are aloud to call it art, till then keep hustling and trying to do your best.
