own. Simply holding a camera or even just looking at lenses brings a joy I can't even describe. I have been told that I always look my happiest with camera in hand and I believe this opportunity will bring that joy tenfold. For as much as I love photography and capturing those special moments, I can say I love the country and culture of Japan just as much. While I don't know much Japanese, I have always been interested in the culture. It all started with anime and it grew and grew while I…

emotionally and intellectually so that the artwork isn’t made without any sort of rationality. It can be used to produce history to catch every single importance in life that will someday generate a social change in our world and the way we view it. Photography has traveled throughout time, which plenty of changes expanded with the most sophisticated camera devices, but the logic behind every photograph will forever have a distinct perspective through the viewer's…

David Hockney is a great painter,but he has also known fame through photography, although he does not mince his words when he says ‘Photography will never equal painting!’ In the early 1980s, Hockney began to produce photocollages, which he called "joiners," first of Polaroid prints and later of 35mm, commercially processed color prints. Using varying numbers of Polaroid snaps or photolab-prints of a single subject Hockney arranged a patchwork to make a composite image. One of his first…

Photography dates back to 1839 as a result of the camera obscura. The camera obscura was a photographic medium that captured beautiful pictures, drawings, objects, still life and any views. Louis Jacques Mande Daguerre and William Henry Fox Talbot invented separate processes in London and Paris called the daguerreotype and the calotype. They both implemented the camera obscura to make their inventions. Both Daguerre and Talbot were passionate about and envisioned reproducing nature into…

Is seeing really believing? The question of whether or not photographers go too far when they “stage” or “manipulate” a photograph’s scene, has been an ongoing issue throughout our history. When this topic became part of the discussion in class, I immediately held the belief that presenting a fake photo was wrong. To me, it seemed very cut and dry; honesty versus dishonesty. After all, it would be against a moral code of ethics for a person to do such a terrible thing. If photographers got…

Over 100 years before Kohler Co’s 1998 recapitalization, they began as a humble, family-owned plumbing fixture manufacturer created by John Michael Kohler. Through years of acquisitions and diversification of products and services, Kohler grew into a billion-dollar company. Released in 1997, Kohler had expanded its focus to four key sections: on “kitchen and bath, power systems, interiors, and hospitality and real estate.” By 1984, Kohler had 500 million in sales, and eventually grew to 2.2…

Photography is a form of art that I’ve always believed I could understand/relate to the most. I’ve always enjoyed being behind the lens and observing others photographs. The way that Sally Mann discusses her own photography and different methods represents how I would want to approach photography. She explains that the meaning behind all of her work is simply because it’s fun, even if that’s hard to believe. I like the idea that she does photography simply because she loves it. She goes on to…

white with a hand-held Leica camera, but as any other kid, he decided to go against the trend and began using a larger camera to work with color on a tripod, using a 100 ASA Fuji film in two large-format Linhof cameras. Throughout his career in photography, most of his released…
