For those of you who pursue photography as an art form: does it eat you up inside knowing that you don't have the will power to actually learn how to draw?

Photography and painting equally need those things to have an artistic merit, otherwise it's doodling vs. phone snapshots

Also, photography is a great instrument for conceptual art and I do think that fine art photography is an abortion

Well, yes, photography is a useful tool, I'm not arguing that; it's fast, and it gets the job done. What I mean is that I can't understand how someone with an affinity for visual arts could feel accomplished by just tanking pictures of things.

And no, you cannot compare the understanding of light in a drawing to the understanding of light in a photography context; saying they are the same thing or that they require the same amount of effort to get down is being delusional.

It's related by the delicious irony of the fact that the man you have to thank for the "light and form" on which this hierarchical discussion is premised (Kant) himself ranked poetry as the most rarified and perfect art form (notwithstanding his appraisal of sight as the most "noble" of the senses, Kant thought orality was the most free).

I don't believe in an idea of "lesser" or "higher" mediums, I can do both and more, but each one has it's own boundaries and strengths that any artist should be aware of and learn to use them accordingly.

It's stupid to use photography as a pure visual form, there is, indeed, painting for those things.

But I think that greatest value of photography for an artist is that in most cases it is percieved as a document, delieverd message, something that is real and exists or happened and good artist can build anything on that perception.

"the truth" is that photography as an art form is in its baby steps and still has amazing things compared to thousands of years of painting, and that for things such as capturing events and journalism, it is obviously much better than painting. You might talk about the freedom that painting gives you, but that's not a plus, you're just saying that you don't have any obstacles which makes you look like a little pussy bitch. Sure, to create completely fantastical imagery it is better, especially since you can do it in isolation and don't need anyone else for it.
Of course, just the fact that you want to have an "who's into the better art form" contest shows me how much of a manchild you are.

Realistically not everyone has the innate ability necessary? If we're being honest here, I really doubt that any more than 1% of people are capable on a cognitive level and dexterity level of producing photorealistic drawings or paintings.

Photography is a tool for the rest of us who might have visual-processing related skills, though not ultimately the right combination to allow us to draw or paint photorealistically.

I have a friend who is very masculine (no spatial skill deficit), with an above average IQ (135), and all he can produce is scribbles. He has tried before to draw and paint. Meanwhile, I know effeminate (and also female) borderline retards who are incredibly gifted with reproducing life on paper. Should the former be artistically silenced and the latter subhumans become our culture's artistic voice because your head is buried in your rectum?

Would you call someone a faggot for driving instead of walking, because, "driving isn't proper travel"? What you're protesting is the use of tools.

No, I fundamentally reject this. Having seen people who can draw photorealistically work, and having known some who are quite good, I can say that nearly all of the population is either neurologically or physiologically incapable.

As I've seen demonstrated before me, the people who inhabit the arbitrary combination of necessary traits are often completely fucking retarded anyways, and not always worth conserving. If the natural ability doesn't save one from retardation, I see hardly any point in valuing that skill.

Or the picture where a small group of protesters is being attacked but if you zoom out you can see a whole mob of protesters fucking shit up? It's super easy to present people with biased photos.

Completely false. Go to an atelier for 1 year and you'll see that a very very tiny amount of the population can not learn art, like less than 1 percent. Anyone can learn art, it's just that most people do not have the knowledge that needs to be applied or they aren't willing to put in the hours of daily work that is needed to git gud. Actually, if we're talking "photorealistic" stuff, even a brain dead retard could do that within a couple months. Look up the grid method. 99% of people who you see posting photorealistic drawings just find a photo they like, then put it on a grid and copy it on over to paper, something anyone can do. Or some don't even do that and just trace, that's why the line drawing is always already complete in those timelapse videos. After that all they have to do is learn how to render/fill in the details. They cheat at ye hard part of getting down the correct proportions and angles and just jump into coloring in the drawing. Anyone can do that. On /ic/ they're called photocopiers because all they can do is reproduce whatever is on a photo, they can't crrate anything from imagination or even from life. If 99% of normies who draw once every couple weeks can achieve that, I'm 100% sure anyone with even a little dedication can learn to do art better than them.

I think the problem is that photography takes next to no effort, you just take a picture and print it out. Meanwhile, painting can take a few hours and a decent amount of skill. But art isn't about how hard it was to make, its about how it makes you feel.

I normally don't give a fuck about this shitty argument but I'll just say this:

If what you draw are just things that could be captured on the camera you're not really doing anything a photographer doesn't do except draw a bunch of lines. This is like people who brag about shooting manual mode, when all you're doing is lining up the needle in the middle of the viewfinder so it exposes right. You're not actually "creating" anything, you're also just "capturing" something, only a lot slower.

Now, I don't think drawing or photography are bad even if you choose to just capture what you see. But arguing about how you re-create something you've seen in real life is like filmfags acting superior because they had to develop their shots first. It's fucking stupid. At least learn to draw original pieces that don't exist or can't be so easily created in real life, if you wanna talk any shit at all.

photography clearly has a different purpose to painting and drawing. part of its beauty is that it uses what already exists. in a way, it's the most life-affirming art.

Are you actually implying auto mode is the same as manual mode?

Still is no excuse for auto mode. You'll end up ruining great shots.

I'm saying manual mode is not benefiting you compared to semi auto modes like aperture or shutter priority. I am also saying that bragging about shooting manual when you're just doing what the meter told you to do is like bragging that you spent 20 hours drawing what a camera could capture in 1/100 a second. And while you were making a photo realistic drawing of the same frame over a span of 20 hours, in was able to shoot 100 more shots from all sorts of different angles and times of day.

Hahahahahahaahahahahaha
Light is how photographs are made if there's anything that photographers know it's how light works.

>photography takes next to no effort, you just take a picture and print it out
The same could be said for drawing. You just get a piece of paper and doodle for a while.
If you don't put in any effort your pictures are gonna be boring.

>photography takes no effort
hah!

scout for locations
be allowed to access them
find people
compose with the idea in mind
look for angles
set up lights
direct the models
optional; direct the assistants
optional; direct the MU artists
optional; negotiate with clients
optional; make DIY props
repeat for several pics during the shoot, better be efficient
then spend hours processing everything
with consistency

sure, if you think photography is only pressing a shutter.
or, let's say, you do street photography instead?
walk the streets for hours, days
find an interesting point of view
go back again at a different time with different light
wait for people to spontaneously align right where you need
or get straight in their face and communicate

meanwhile you're drawing in the comfort of your room.
