photography

photography is an art very much like impressionism. You're capturing life as it's happening. A great medium for Creation
of a journal or story. If you're new to photography, especially DSLRs, it's a good idea to take a look at some books from Amazon.com or other large book venders.

http://www.photo-scenix.com has a few good books
on photography.
How, her photography really "pops" I didn't know the sky had that many colors in it!

Phonograph

A Talking Machine that can be used by hand cranking the switch by the switch on the bottom corner of the device.
The Machine Is a Predessor of The Record Player, and the Walkmen, or the CD Drive, or even the I-Pod, and even MP3's. Thanks In part to the introduction of the Phonograph in 1877 Sound In Motion Pitchures Telivison,and Music itself. Though futher more the Phonograph Revolutonized Product Placement and Music Itself It also helped contribute to the birth of Movies. After the machine was introduced in 1877 the product was originally to expensive for the regular consumer though 10 years into the introduction of the product it was by 1888 that a larger scale of American's had owned this device. The Machine was invented by The Electric Wizard Thomas Alva Edison,Thomas Edison for short. By the Turn Of The Century The Phonograph was in most households and became i huge consumer product.
Though by the Late 1920's Sound In Motion Pitchures had Over Shadowed the Phonograph. After the Decade was out the Phonograh was Re-Named The Record Player which was an Updated Version Of The Phonograph The Record Player possessed Better Sound Quality.
Alex discovered some Vinyl Records In his Grandpas Closet.
Granda explained how they used to listen to musicians and singers on a hand cranked talking machine called the Phonograph which was the most valueable consumer product in the 1910's and 1920's.

phoTAGrapher

One who, on Facebook, relentlessly tags themselves and others in recently posted albums (despite the fact that no one else cares to be tagged).
Me: Wow Katie tagged, like, thirty people in that album.
Sean: She's a tagging fiend bro.
Me: Classic photagrapher.

Phonographic Memory

A person blessed with a Phonographic Memory has the ability to instantly recall and name the origin of sounds, chords, bass lines, drum fills, and guitar licks from the records he/she/they heard in their youth. Everybody recognizes the opening licks of "Satisfaction", but a person with Phonographic Memory "...can name that song in one note."

It is not the hearing of a train whistle and being reminded of the long summer evenings in Iowa. It is not recognizing a song being played faintly in the background of a Budweiser commercial. It is directly related to the graphic recording ( the LP or 45 rpm record, quite likely ) of those particular notes, and a instantaneous and pinpoint recognition of the song. Phonographic Memory (PM) is like muscle memory, as it is developed by repetition.
We gotta get Carlos on our team for this Trivia competition. The dude knows every song ever recorded! All he needs to hear is one note, and he can name it. He has Phonographic Memory!

Video photography

Art of shooting a short video when subjects believe you are taking a photo. Induces an awkward pseudo stillness as some pose, while others move preparing for the perfect position for a snapshot. Results in a lovely moment of capturing the human condition.
Well that pose was actually for a moment of video photography.

photography

Something every scene/emo kid on myspace is interested in, but sucks balls at. They have tons of pictures of ugly flowers in their "photography" album on myspace. They bring their camera everywhere with them. It's really annoying because when you walk down the street with them, they take a picture of every ugly flower they see.
Veronica, put your camera away before I break it. You suck at photography and need to quit taking pictures of ugly flowers.

ps: sorry for stressing the ugly flowers so much.

pps: it's just that they really do only take pictures of ugly flowers!

ppps: sorry, again.
