How much light does a latent picture need? How much light does a photography need for leaving prints? When does a photography leaves impressions? Can a picture be a document? This work is considering with these questions and explores the subjectivity of the media photography under the theme of light and the limits of photography.
Narrative photographs in which light becomes a protagonist show the dublication of content and also the basis for the media. Light is visible and without light the photography would be invisible. Is light the essence of photography?
If light is elementary, can a photo work as a document? If light is an aesthetic phenomenon which is based on perception, will there be objective pictures?
