Ever wanted to own an Ansel Adams photograph? (o.k. some of you new students are asking...who the heck is that?) Or see a photograph of Greenville,SC almost a hundred years ago? How about a photo of Abraham Lincoln by Matthew Brady created during the Civil War? Have you ever seen photos of the effects of the Depression on the South and its people? These images, and thousands more, can be found at YOUR national library in Washington, DC. For more info---- see the link to that site. Happy viewing!

Through the Pinhole Lens

A view from the inside of the camera obscura to the outside world.

PINHOLE CAMERAS

So...You think you have created a light-proof canister? Good for you! This weekend take some time to examine your "camera" and make sure it is truly light tight. Design an outside that reflects who you are. You and this cardboard device are going to be "up close and personal" for the next few weeks. Remember---if it doesn't work, you don't work....See you Monday where we bond talking about Dektol, acetic acid and more fun stuff!
