"Photography Is The Manipulation Of Light"

If a take a mirror and use it to shine a light in your eye, is that photography?

Manipulating light enters into photography, but doesn't define it.

Its Greek origins are "drawing with light". It seems like that would be a more accurate description.

A pentaprism viewfinder in an SLR or DSLR camera manipulates light but nothing is recorded. The light needs to recorded some way to be photography.

It is necessary but not sufficient. Thus, a laser light show is “manipulation of light” but not photography.

Real answer:

“capturing images with light”
