The revolution of digital cameras and digital technologies, together with the explosive growth of the Internet, has led to profound changes in photography and society. Photography has a great ability to change shape and thus can influence people's thinking and disrupt expectations. In the last two decades, the conflict between photography and technology, especially the virtual environment - the Internet and social media - has changed a lot. Post-production processed photos or the use of various filters that completely change the original photo are increasingly present. Visual communication is achieved through photography, so it is important what kind of photos we encounter every day. Today's photos strive for perfection and fantasy, and most often we encounter them in the virtual world, a world in which an increasing number of people live. Excessive use of digital technologies has led to the fact that people began to live in a virtual world where we are surrounded by perfect fantasy photos, and living reality is less and less shown. People are so closed in the virtual world that they perceive it as reality.
