in Beijing China. the Mohist philosopher anya mentioned the effect of an inverted image forming through a pinhole. The image of an inverted Chinese pagoda is mentioned in Duan Chengshi’s book “Miscellaneous Morsels from Youyang" written during the Tang Dynasty which occurred in the years 618–907. A Philosopher by the name of Mo Tsu was then the first known person on record to record the formation of an inverted image from a pinhole camera down. The pinhole in the pinhole camera is acting as the…

Currie argues that a process of subconscious remediation occurs in film, between reality and illusion, the outcome of which is an understanding that the images on screen are captured and manipulated.7 Braking a film up into still images and examining a single shot “blurs the boundar[ies]” to the extent where the illusionistic element is lost and the image becomes like a photograph, embodying the ‘window on the world’ ideology.8 Outside of cinema, art films provide another complication. The…

People are inundated with large amounts of images on the daily based that they are more willing to skim through images rather that look and examine the possible situations presented. The artist made an attempt to put the pictures in a different context and hold the viewers attention much like a painting would. At first I did what most people do when it comes to digital images, I took a quick glance and kept looking, it was only on the second walk around did…

“collector,” because he likes to collect everything related to his family. In The Ontology of the Photographic Image, Andre Bazin argues that the ontology of photographic image creates an ideal world with its time after the death. An old photography from Jonathan’s grandfather carries out a long history of a family secret. Therefore, Photography is not a visual art only; the presentation of the image of Jonathan’s grandfather and…

which humans remember things. As Roland Barthes effectively summarized, “what the Photograph reproduces to infinity has occurred only once” (Camera Lucida). A photograph serves as a permanent memory, one that could easily be relived when viewing the image. As a result, photography soon began to be used to document history. Everyday events could now be captured with a click of a button…

This image shows Mother Mary talking to her Mother St.Anne. I love this image because as an religious kid, this photograph demonstrates my love for my religion. The quality I like best about this photo is how I edited it. I loved the way I kept the background the same yet I lighten up Mary and St.Anne. The one and only thing I would do differently would be to experiment with the contrast and the brightness a little more or even try this photo in black and white. I had no trouble at all taking…

way used to picture things before the invention of photography. He opens by describing what imagery is to the viewer, basically something interpreted in relation to themselves, and the relation the person has to the picture. The context behind the image is just as important as the actual physical thing, and with photography, it gives greater context seeing as how in a painting, the viewer is getting a second hand perspective from the painter. This was a revelation I hadn’t thought of as an…

crude lenses. It was used for entertainment and often times, education, for all ages. It remained very popular until motion toys came about and soon the concept of “persistence of vision” came forth, in which it is “the eye's capacity to retain an image even after it has been removed”. Peter Mark Roget in 1824 came up with that description and idea and helped advance in cinema. In 1831, Michael Faraday discovered the law of electromagnetic induction. He discovered the process of generating…

and I will run it from my home there. Though I will be traveling quite a bit to different locations to get the best pictures for different occasions or if a client has a specific location they would like to take the images at. But at my central location I will use it to edit the images for clients and it will also serve as a meeting place to meet clients. As they may want to discuss pricing and locations for the type of shoot they are wanting. My business is a well-rounded photography business.…

The Chinese proverb, “A picture is worth a thousand words”, is routinely used when glancing through a group of images. The main purpose of pictures is to forever preserve the moment in time and look back to appreciate the memory. The purpose of preservation can be found through a collection of images taken at a family gathering, or pictures at a museum event, so people could understand what it was like during that time in history. What if the photographer was trying to capture more than a…
