Creative H & I - Photography Controveries

Photography has created many controversies since its creation in 1839, most noticeably in the content of the images and how they are perceived by the audiences moral view point. This also interestingly is effected by the period of time in which the photograph is viewed, some photographs have been in circulation for many years before causing controversies surrounding issues at that time, while others are banned for many years before being allowed back in circulation because their imagery and content no longer provoke such controversy.
Photographers both professional and amateur can face controversy over their images at any given time, what seems to be acceptable to one person may not to another which leads on to the issue of what is classed as 'right' and 'wrong' and whether photography is there to please the audience or not.
