The author concludes that photographs are interpretations of reality. This is based on the fact that photographers express their own worldviews in their photographs.

Does expressing one’s own worldview constitute an “interpretation of reality”? It might seem like a reasonable assumption, but it’s still an assumption. It’s not explicitly stated, nor is it something that must be true based purely on the definitions of “expressing a worldview” or “interpretation of reality.” So we’re looking for “Expressing one’s worldview constitutes interpreting reality.”

(A) establishes that a realistic representation “can” involve interpreting the subject. But this doesn’t guarantee that it always constitutes an interpretation of reality. (A) leaves open the possibility that some photos are not interpreting reality, even if other photos “can” involve interpreting reality.

The premise establishes that photographs express worldviews. In connection with (B), we can conclude that photographs interpret reality.

We already know that photos express the photographers’ worldviews. What’s missing is whether such expression constitutes interpreting reality. (C) doesn’t tell us that such expression constitutes interpreting reality.

(D) reverses what we’re looking for. We want to know that all expressions of worldviews involve interpretations of reality. But (D) asserts that all interpretations of reality involve expressions of a worldview. This leaves open the possibility that some expressions of worldviews might not involve interpretations of reality.

We already know that photos express the photographers’ worldviews. What’s missing is whether such expression constitutes interpreting reality. (E) doesn’t tell us that such expression constitutes interpreting reality.
