Now, it’s about movement.
Photography is still. Video or film is motion. Music is motion, it doesn't stand still. It's far more complicated when things move. Understanding of something moving is far more difficult than something sitting still.
Unlike golf where you are trying to hit the ball that is not moving at all.
That is why Photography has become nonchalant to all people, it's easy to understand. They, whoever they are, made it easy for us because it's easy to understand. On the surface level that is.
If you linger a bit and really start analyzing a photo, it would end up in world politics. The difference between a good photo and a bad photo is just that; bad photo doesn't get you anywhere, but good photo tells you a story, however simple a story might be. Simplicity is art.

When I was young, I came upon an image that changed my perspective forever. It was a progressive picture of a bull from complete detailed drawing turning into just simple lines.
It was by Picasso. A man I strive be. He was a living legend!
You don't get meet greatness in your lifetime that often personally. But we live in vicarious world.
And greatness is subjective. I see a bit of greatness in everyone. Everyone has greatness some more than others. Really great ones are the ones like Picasso and the people who changed our way of thinking and living.
Put yourself in their shoes. Emulate them. Find an old master who you like and try to be him or her. Copy their style, shoot like them. When you’ve done that, you will find your own style. You got to shoot and shoot, just shoot a lot.
