Photography comes from English photography, and derived from the Greek word "photos": Light and "Grafo" which means to paint or write,
scraping is the process of painting or writing using light media.
As a general term, photography means a process or method for producing images or photographs of an object with a good recording of light reflected on the target object on a light-sensitive media.
The most popular tool for capturing this light is the camera. No light, no photos can be made.
