Generator Review

This Sand
This generator was very simple. All you had to do was click and hold and it would create little sand pyramids. Although, you could select any color. You could also hold down and mix the colors so the pyramids would fade to different colors. When I used it the first time I didn't understand the colors at first. The second time I used it I created several color gradient pyramids. They turned out very cool.

Neave Imagination 
This generator was similar to the last. It wasn't drawing, it was more of a guided art. All you had to do was drag your mouse across the screen and it made a form of light design. If you held down the clicker is would light up the line more and the design would fade. However, I found this generator somewhat pointless.

Viscosity
This generator started with an image and you could obstruct the image. You could change the color set or use grayscale or one of the given ones. It was a geometric image. You had to use the different tools offered to change the image. I enjoyed this generator. However, it was a little hard to navigate and I still do not totally understand it.

            Over the years photography has evolved in many ways. So many new inventions have been created in order to better photographer’s ability to capture an image. Many new advancements will be added to these new cameras and phones containing a camera. In 25 years from now photography will include many new aspects and focus on new ways to help photographers take photos in a simpler way.

            In the future so many new ideas will be added to a traditional camera. People will be able to access more on their camera instead of just taking a photo. I believe you will be able to print right from your camera and have the ability to share your photos easier. From your camera everything will be able to connect on Wi-Fi, which this idea will become reality very soon because some cameras can connect to phones wirelessly. Your camera will also include more detailed ways to edit your photo that way you can print or share your photo the exact way you want everyone to see it. In 25 years I also believe there will be the start of holograms, which would further help photographers. Holograms would be located in the camera aiding photographers in editing their photos and capturing them. Many new additions will be added to our everyday cameras.

I believe the popularity of cellphones is destroying the world of photography. High-quality cameras are not as popular and will soon be irrelevant. As the new models of phones come out the cameras keep getting better. This is causing less interest in actual photographs and cameras. Sadly some people don't even care about actual photographs. I mean as long as they are on my phone and backed up to my computer its all fine, right? Wrong. The value of high-quality cameras will soon be non-existent. This is due to many of the new social media apps, as well. Cellphones and social media create an easy format to take photos. Instead of buying an expensive high-quality camera that is only useful for taking photos, people invest in cellphones. Antonio Olmos stated, "Photographers are getting destroyed by the rise of iPhones. The photographers who used to make £1,000 for a weekend taking wedding pictures are the ones facing the squeeze. Increasingly we don't need photographers – we can do just as well ourselves." 
However, I believe that a high-quality camera and a skilled photographer will take a little more than an iphone and Instagram to knock it out. There is a certain pride and beauty that comes with taking a photograph. Something that can't be that easily replaced. Photography is a form of art that is incredibly interesting. It also mentions, "There are those people that are genuinely caring for the photographic event – the photo."
