Description
Summary:The camera's rendering of reality always hides more than it discloses and as such, there is a focus on the perspective of the operator. The resultant visual images, based upon the composition of the subject within the frame of the camera carry within them, a specific image; a semblance of reality and a message that has been composed within its very structure. However, place the photographic image within the structure of a text, and it becomes a part of the text, losing the autonomy of its meaning and takes on a meaning that has been framed by the text. This means that the modern reader-viewer would have to be conscious of the messages ascribed by visual images in text because of this.
