IS DOCUMENTARY PHOTOGRAPHY ART?

There are those people out there who when they see documentary photography, or any photography for that matter, they say that it isn’t art. The only reason that I have been able to come up with for this reaction is that they must be unhappy with life. Documentary photography is a snippet of life. Regardless of whether it was intended to be beautiful/”artistic” or not doesn’t really matter. What matters is that we look long enough to stretch ourselves so that we can see the beauty that is there.  These are humans; humans are beautiful. They are children of the almighty, the greatest artist. If the creation of the Master’s hand isn’t art or beautiful, I don’t know what is.
