photography
Photography is primarily used as an uncountable noun when referring to the art, science, or profession as a whole. When talking about specific types of photos, people often use the word 'photographs' or 'photos' instead. For example, you would say "I enjoy photography" (the hobby), but "I took ten photographs" (the individual images).
