Tell me, Why not?
Art is the expression or application of human creative skill and imagination to be appreciated primarily for their beauty or emotional power.
Once a friend of mine said, “Photography is not art. You guy do nothing except pressing a button.”
I replied, “What do you think about paintings. Is it art?”
He said, “Yes!”
I said, “But they do nothing except rubbing the paintbrush on the canvas.”
He said, “But they make beautiful pictures which can not be done by an ordinary person.”
Exactly. A camera is just a tool like a paintbrush. Only the artist knows how to use the tools.
Yes. Good photography can replace art. Photography is the new art that is replacing art and it is not the worst thing that happened to art. Art has become a plaything of the rich and famous. Overpriced “modern art” that is only appreciated by 1 percent has turned art into a joke. What today’s artists are producing is an insult to the art of the past. As an art lover, I am relieved that photography has taken over from art as an affordable form of art.
Center for Fine Art Photography was created in 2004.

You can't really have a good opinion about art, you can only have an honest opinion. There is no right or wrong. The work of art either is appealing (or makes you think, feel, etc) to you or it doesn't. In order words, you either like it for some reason or you don't. It's a simple as that.
Photography is the Eighth Art.
photography is a visual art. not a performing art.
