WOW – “The Photo That Captured Me”

Today is World Photography Day. We’re celebrating 177 years of being able to freeze moments in time by manipulating and capturing light through cameras.  We can safely say that the camera is one device that has truly changed the world. Cameras, since their invention, have captured generations of families, the most important milestones in people’s lives, have been the reason to topple regimes and brought the truth out in the open. Photographs have captured reality and fantasy in their frame since their inception. So on this day we ask – which is the photo that has captured you?

The WOW prompt for this week is – “The Photo That Captured Me”

Clicking a photo has gone from the cumbersome minutes long process and week long wait for the final result to a clicking in bursts that take hardly a second of your time. Even then, the power of photographs has not diminished, as a beautiful photo can capture your feelings and imagination like no other. Photos simply make us feel things, and putting these feelings in words can be a wonderful experience.

So for this week’s WOW prompt “The Photo That Captured Me”, show us the picture that has touched you, affected you, inspired you or moved you in any way, and tell us what was so special about the photo. It can be a photo which you clicked, or a photo that your friend showed you, or a picture that you chanced upon anywhere. Write a blog post about the impact the photo had on you, how it captured your heart and mind.

The top 3 posts of the week will win super cool sunglasses worth Rs. 2500 each from BlogAdda and Miami Blues.
