Why is this quote surprising/shocking to you?
“Recently, photography has become almost as widely practiced as an amusement as sex and dancing – which means that, like every mass art form, photography is not practiced by most people as an art. It is mainly a social rite, a defense against anxiety, and a tool of power”
-Susan Sontag

I don’t find it to be either. If you are referring to the sex aspect, it seems to me that it is now seen by far to many solely as a form of amusement. That’s both within and outside of relationships. Fidelity and the like seem to be becoming a thing of the past.

It’s not surprising or shocking…it’s true; photography is so quick and easy now, with camera phones, digital cameras, even the disposablecameras have their place. Enjoy it! I take artsy pictures, but I also take snapshots of my friends, family, and mostly my pets. People should be glad photography has such as high availability!

I think that she likes to hear herself talk more than anything. thats probably not her opinion, she just wants people to talk about the quote.
