Portraitures Looking down at cameras to see a second that has been captured its a second in life that might not ever be seen again except in that picture. It has captured that memories in a single look. Taking a picture can say a lot it can show you the environment around. It can show what people look like or what people are doing sometimes posing and sometimes random and other times just being silly. There are also times of sadness in a picture with a sad face or a happy face it depends on that second that memory that has been captured by that single camera.
