Class Description
This photography course combined early photo history and practice.
We began with the camera obscura, worked through to pinhole cameras, continued through the late 19th century and early 20th century in coating materials with various emulsions, exposed light sensitive materials using ultraviolet light instead of an enlarger, and completed the mod exploring medium- and large-format photography, which produces extremely detailed negatives with fine grain.
