I will give you two weeks to read the book. Make a presentation about the book.
Tell us:
1. What is the story?
2. Who are the main characters?
3. What is the dilemma? What do the main characters want? What prevents them from getting what they want? In the end, did they get what they want? Or not? How and why?
4. How do you find the book?
5. Who is the author? Tell us the life story of the author.
6. What is the essence of the story? What is it really about?
I will be asking you regarding the story so you will have to read. I can tell if you’ve just consulted reading digests online.
Good luck and happy reading!
HISTORY OF PHOTOGRAPHY NOTES
The word photography derives from the Greek words phōs (genitive: phōtós) light, and gráphein, to write. The word was coined by Sir John Herschel in 1839.
There are two distinct scientific processes that combine to make photography possible.
| The first of these processes was optical. The Camera Obscura (dark room) had been in existence for at least four hundred years. There is a drawing, dated 1519, of a Camera Obscura by Leonardo da Vinci; about this same period its use as an aid to drawing was being advocated.
The Dutch Masters, such as Johannes Vermeer, who were hired as painters in the 17th century, were known for their magnificent attention to detail. It has been widely speculated that they made use of such a camera, but the extent of their use by artists at this period remains a matter of considerable controversy The second process was chemical. For hundreds of years before photography was invented, people had been aware, for example, that some colours are bleached in the sun, but they had made little distinction between heat, air and light. |
- In the sixteen hundreds Robert Boyle, a founder of the Royal Society, had reported that silver chloride turned dark under exposure, but he appeared to believe that it was caused by exposure to the air, rather than to light.
- Angelo Sala, in the early seventeenth century, noticed that powdered nitrate of silver is blackened by the sun.
- In 1727 Johann Heinrich Schulze discovered that certain liquids change colour when exposed to light.
- At the beginning of the nineteenth century Thomas Wedgwood was conducting experiments; he had successfully captured images, but his silhouettes could not survive, as there was no known method of making the image permanent.
The first successful picture was produced in June/July 1827 by Niépce, using material that hardened on exposure to light. This picture required an exposure of eight hours.
On 4 January 1829 Niépce agreed to go into partnership with Louis Daguerre . Niépce died only four years later, but Daguerre continued to experiment. Soon he had discovered a way of developing photographic plates, a process which greatly reduced the exposure time from eight hours down to half an hour. He also discovered that an image could be made permanent by immersing it in salt.
These ideas led to the famous Daguerreotype.
Daguerreotypes were usually portraits; the rarer views are much sought-after and are more expensive. The portrait process took several minutes and required the subjects to remain stock still. Samuel Morse was astonished to learn that Daguerrotypes of streets of Paris did not show any humans, until he realized that due to the long exposure times all moving objects became invisible. The time was later reduced with the “faster” lenses such as Petzval’s portrait lens, the first mathematically calculated lens.
“Boulevard du Temple“, taken by Daguerre in 1838 in Paris, was the first photograph of a person. The image shows a street, but because of the over ten minute exposure time the moving traffic does not appear. The exceptions are the man and shoe-shine boy at the bottom left, and two people sitting at a table nearby who stood still long enough to have their images captured.
The announcement that the Daguerreotype “requires no knowledge of drawing….” and that “anyone may succeed…. and perform as well as the author of the invention” was greeted with enormous interest, and “Daguerreomania” became a craze overnight. An interesting account of these days is given by a writer called Gaudin , who was present the day that the announcement was made.
| Daguerreotypes were invented by Louis Daguerre in 1839. They were the earliest
type of photograph commercially available to the public. Daguerreotype images usually exhibit fine detail associated with a small aperture camera lens and high resolution, long exposure film. They were most popular during the late 1840s to early 1850s, and rarely produced after 1860. Photographs dating from the Civil War are often mislabeled as Daguerreotypes, but by that time, they had been replaced by the less expensive ambrotypes and tintype Ambrotypes were introduced by Frederick Scott Archer in 1851 and reached their peak popularity between 1855 and 1860. They died out after the introduction of the carte de visite (CdV) in the early 1860s. Ambrotypes became popular because they were cheaper and were more convenient to produce than Daguerreotypes, requiring shorter exposure times. The glass substrate of the ambrotype was also less easily damaged than the thin copper plate of the Daguerreotype Tintypes became popular during the Civil War because it was possible for soldiers to send them to their families through the mail. They were less likely to break than the glass plates of ambrotypes or the copper plates of Daguerreotypes. In addition, up to twelve images could be produced on a plate in a single exposure with a multiple lens camera. It is said that the tintype got its name from the tin shears used to cut individual images from sheet. Tintypes Tintypes, patented in 1856 by Hamilton Smith, were another medium that heralded the birth of photography. A thin sheet of iron was used to provide a base for light-sensitive material, yielding a positive image. Wet Plate Negatives In 1851, Frederick Scoff Archer, an English sculptor, invented the wet plate negative. Using a viscous solution of collodion, he coated glass with light-sensitive silver salts. Because it was glass and not paper, this wet plate created a more stable and detailed negative. Photography advanced considerably when sensitized materials could be coated on plate glass. However, wet plates had to be developed quickly before the emulsion dried. In the field this meant carrying along a portable darkroom. Dry Plate Negatives & Hand-held Cameras In 1879, the dry plate was invented, a glass negative plate with a dried gelatin emulsion. Dry plates could be stored for a period of time. Photographers no longer needed portable darkrooms and could now hire technicians to develop their photographs. Dry processes absorbed light quickly so rapidly that the hand-held camera was now possible. Flexible Roll Film In 1889, George Eastman invented film with a base that was flexible, unbreakable, and could be rolled. Emulsions coated on a cellulose nitrate film base, such as Eastman’s, made the mass-produced box camera a reality. He founded the Eastman Kodak Company and invented roll film, helping to bring photography to the mainstream. Roll film was also the basis for the invention of motion picture film in 1888 by the world’s first filmmaker Louis Le Prince, and a few years later by his followers Léon Bouly, Thomas Edison, the Lumière Brothers and Georges Méliès. n 1884 George Eastman, of Rochester, New York, developed dry gel on paper, or film, to replace the photographic plate so that a photographer no longer needed to carry boxes of plates and toxic chemicals around. In July 1888 Eastman’s Kodak camera went on the market with the slogan “You press the button, we do the rest”. Now anyone could take a photograph and leave the complex parts of the process to others, and photography became available for the mass-market in 1901 with the introduction of the Kodak Brownie. Color Photographs In the early 1940s, commercially viable color films (except Kodachrome, introduced in 1935) were brought to the market. These films used the modern technology of dye-coupled colors in which a chemical process connects the three dye layers together to create an apparent color image. |
The first digitally scanned photograph was produced in 1957. The digital scanning process was invented by Russell A. Kirsch, a computer pioneer at the National Institute of Standards and Technology. He developed the system capable of feeding a camera’s images into a computer. His first fed image was that of his son, Walden Kirsch. The photo was set at 176×176 pixels.
