can't stand still

Two people and their dog stand and watch the sunrise out over the ocean. 

A painter might observe the scene and paint it as they see it. 

But for the photographer the medium is the capture of an actual moment. 

And so it is that the scene may be not quite as they saw it if someone in the photo decides to turn and walk off down the beach just as they press the shutter button!
