What Is Fine Art Photography?

Any definition of fine art photography is merely to serve as a loose working notion of what might differentiate certain photography as art.
From its very origins, photography has contained an unresolved tension between the mechanical, scientific tool of the camera and the natural desire to use it for the creation of beautiful images. Essentially, the term fine art photography is used to refer work created with such a desire in mind, to articulate an impression, a feeling about, or relationship with the world.
Galleries and museums, particularly those dedicated to modern art, have done much over the decades to ensure photography’s spot amongst the other arts. But quite when, how and why it can be confidently categorised in this way remains an open, if fairly pointless, question.
I really don’t think it’s worth getting too exercised over the attempt to deliniate a mark between different categories of photography, and arrive at a fixed definition of fine art photography.
