Suryanarayana SV, the author used an umbrella outdoors when it was drizzling. A friend who walks with me in the morning took it, and it looks normal, but it tells a story worth looking into.

It is appropriate to think about how powerful pictures are at capturing the essence of our daily lives on World Photography Day. A picture can stop time and make us stop, look, and appreciate the beauty in everyday things.

A Short History of World Photography Day

August 19 is World Photography Day. It honors the invention of the daguerreotype, a photographic process that Louis Daguerre created in 1839.This new method started modern photography and made it easier for people to take pictures and keep them.Today, we honor the art of photography and how it can bring people together, inspire them, and keep memories alive.

Why are everyday scenes important?

My using an umbrella in a garden is a perfect example of an everyday scene.It might not seem like a big deal in our daily lives, but when you take a picture of it, it shows how we feel about nature, technology, and ourselves.Here, the umbrella does something different than what it usually does: it protects you from the sun’s harsh rays.This small detail shows how adaptable things are and how clever we are at using them to improve our lives.

Taking the Picture Apart

Let us look at the picture again from my friend’s point of view. The individual depicted in the photograph, which is myself, appears at ease and seems to be enjoying a pleasant moment outdoors. The umbrella, which has a big “BlogS” logo from my blog, becomes a symbol of personal style and maybe even a statement about the person’s preferences or affiliations. The open-zim, plants, and path around the scene suggest a peaceful setting that invites the viewer to enter.

The Strength of Photography

This picture, like many others, can make you feel things, bring back memories, and connect with others.It reminds us that photography is not just about taking pictures of big events or beautiful places; it is also about finding beauty in the little things.The pictures make us think about our own lives, how we relate to the world around us, and the stories we tell through them.

Let us take a moment to appreciate the simple but meaningful things that make up our lives as we celebrate World Photography Day. Photography lets us capture and share our experiences with others, whether it is a sunny day, a rainy afternoon, or a quiet moment of thought. So, get your camera or a smartphone, look around, and find the beauty in everyday things. You never know what stories you might find.

“My Favorite Photo” is the theme for World Photography Day 2025.This theme asks photographers to share a photo they love and the story behind it to celebrate the memories and feelings that come with photography.

A walk in the rain on a drizzly morning is magical!

As I walked with friends, I thought about life and remembered that “Rain reminds all things to grow.”

I have shared my favorite picture on social media in three formats: as a post, a story, and a reel. The picture is circulating widely on the internet. Here’s an example of a social post.
