Consider the meaning of "truth" in terms of the photographer's art. Discuss the concepts of "truth" presented in this chapter and make personal observations about these ideas as they relate to photography, film, and video

What will be an ideal response?

Responses will vary depending on personal observations. Truth suggests the accurate depiction of reality. A still life, a portrait, or a scene is a direct recording of what the camera "sees," a split second of the present moment. Photography can record what was seen as history unfolded and preserve a visual record of what existed if it is not manipulated.
