جُودِي مَنَّاع مِنَ الْكُوَيْتِ، وَعُمْرُهَا ثَمَانِيَ عَشْرَةَ سَنَةً. هِيَ تُحِبُّ التَّصْوِيرَ كَثِيرًا. فِي سَنَةِ ٢٠٢٠، بَدَأَتْ تُصَوِّرُ بِهَاتِفِهَا. كَانَتْ تُصَوِّرُ لَحَظَاتٍ جَمِيلَةً لِأَصْدِقَائِهَا. ثُمَّ اشْتَرَتْ كَامِيرَا. تَقُولُ جُودِي: أَكْثَرُ النَّاسِ يَبْدَؤُونَ التَّصْوِيرَ لِأَنَّهُمْ يُحِبُّونَ الْكَامِيرَاتِ. لَكِنِّي بَدَأْتُ لِلْمُتْعَةِ فَقَطْ. وَالتَّصْوِيرُ عِنْدَهَا هِوَايَةٌ، وَلَيْسَ عَمَلًا. وَفِي الْكُوَيْتِ الْيَوْمَ مُصَوِّرُونَ كَثِيرُونَ. تَقُولُ مُصَوِّرَةٌ أُخْرَى، اسْمُهَا غَنِيمَة: الشَّيْءُ الْعَادِيُّ يَصِيرُ جَمِيلًا فِي الصُّورَةِ. وَالصُّورَةُ الْجَمِيلَةُ لَا تَحْتَاجُ إِلَى كَامِيرَا غَالِيَةٍ. أَحْيَانًا يَكْفِي الْهَاتِفُ.
Judie Manaa is from Kuwait, and she is eighteen years old. She loves taking photos very much. In 2020, she started taking photos with her phone. She used to photograph beautiful moments for her friends. Then she bought a camera. Judie says: most people start photography because they love cameras. But I started just for fun. And for her, photography is a hobby, not a job. And in Kuwait today there are many photographers. Another photographer, called Ghanima, says: an ordinary thing becomes beautiful in a photo. And a beautiful photo does not need an expensive camera. Sometimes a phone is enough.
