  • The Techniques and Material Aesthetics of the Daguerreotype
    The Techniques and Material Aesthetics of the Daguerreotype Michael A. Robinson Submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Photographic History Photographic History Research Centre De Montfort University Leicester Supervisors: Dr. Kelley Wilder and Stephen Brown March 2017 Robinson: The Techniques and Material Aesthetics of the Daguerreotype For Grania Grace ii Robinson: The Techniques and Material Aesthetics of the Daguerreotype Abstract This thesis explains why daguerreotypes look the way they do. It does this by retracing the pathway of discovery and innovation described in historical accounts, and combining this historical research with artisanal, tacit, and causal knowledge gained from synthesizing new daguerreotypes in the laboratory. Admired for its astonishing clarity and holographic tones, each daguerreotype contains a unique material story about the process of its creation. Clues from the historical record that report improvements in the art are tested in practice to explicitly understand the cause for effects described in texts and observed in historic images. This approach raises awareness of the materiality of the daguerreotype as an image, and the materiality of the daguerreotype as a process. The structure of this thesis is determined by the techniques and materials of the daguerreotype in the order of practice related to improvements in speed, tone and spectral sensitivity, which were the prime motivation for advancements. Chapters are devoted to the silver plate, iodine sensitizing, halogen acceleration, and optics and their contribution toward image quality is revealed. The evolution of the lens is explained using some of the oldest cameras extant. Daguerre’s discovery of the latent image is presented as the result of tacit experience rather than fortunate accident.

    Camera Basics, Principles and Techniques - MCD 401 VU Topic 36 Dark Room & Film Processing A darkroom is a room that can be made completely dark to allow the processing of light sensitive photographic materials, including photographic film and photographic paper. Darkrooms have been created and used since the inception of photography in the early 19th century. Darkrooms have many various manifestations, from the elaborate space used by Ansel Adams to a retooled ambulance wagon used by Timothy H. O'Sullivan. From the initial development to the creation of prints, the darkroom process allows complete control over the medium. Due to the popularity of color photography and complexity of processing color film and printing color photographs and also to the rise, first of Polaroid technology and later digital photography, darkrooms are decreasing in popularity, though are still commonplace on college campuses, schools and in the studios of many professional photographers. Other applications of darkrooms include the use in nondestructive testing, such as magnetic particle inspection. Darkroom equipment In most darkrooms, an enlarger, an optical apparatus similar to a slide projector, that projects the image of a negative onto a base, finely controls the focus, intensity and duration of light, is used for printmaking. A sheet of photographic paper is exposed to the enlarged image from the negative. When making black-and-white prints, a safelight is commonly used to illuminate the work area. Since the majority of black-and-white papers are sensitive to only blue, or to blue and green light, a red- or amber-colored light can be safely used without exposing the paper.

    Camera Basics, Principles and Techniques –MCD 401 Organized by:-Rao Rajpoot Muhammad Bilal 0306-8994125, April 21, 2019 Topic no. 1 PHOTOGRAPHY PART I Whether you're hanging out with friends on the beach or reading about the history of the 1930s, photography will likely make an appearance. The oldest known photograph dates back to 1826, but the structure that would become the first camera was described by Aristotle. The process of taking pictures has become increasingly refined during the 19th century, transitioning from heavy glass plates to light, gelatin-coated flexible film. Today, once-innovative film cameras take a back seat to the convenience and ease of digital cameras. Photography is a fun form of art and many people are engaged in it. This is because of the wide form of artistry it can create with the uniqueness of every shot. People around the globe have appreciated the aftermaths of amazing photography. Do you know what makes these photos look amazingly stunning? It is because of the photography composition each one has. It would indeed be futile if you take shots without considering photography composition. You will not be able to give your images a perfect beauty without it. There are some photography composition techniques that one can do but it is the photographer’s touch and creativity that makes each output unique. 1. It creates more appealing photos 2. To deliver a more convincing story 3. It looks more professional. 4. It has balance 5. It makes unique pictures 6. It shows a personality7. It adds more life to images 8.

  • Gallic Acid and Talbot's Calotype Patent (J. B. Reade, Part
    [From ANNALS of SCIENCE Vol. 27, No. 1, March, 1971.] J. B READE, F.R.S., AND THE EARLY HISTORY OF PHOTOGRAPHY PART II. GALLIC ACID AND TALBOT’S CALOTYPE PATENT By R. DEREK WOOD.* [PLATE XIII] THE Rev. Joseph Bancroft Reade, F.R.S. (1801-1870), has been given some prominence in histories of photography as an early independent discoverer of the photographic process, as well as the first person to use sodium thiosulphite (hypo) as a fixer. Part I of this paper 1 presented definitive contemporary evidence that Reade did not discover photography independently of W. H. Fox Talbot: Reade only began his photography, as did many other persons, immediately after Talbot’s disclosure of his photogenic drawing technique in January 1839. But it is also necessary to investigate any evidence regarding Reade’s use, during 1839, of nut -gall infusion to make Talbot’s photogenic paper more sensitive; and to consider if this could have contributed to the discovery of the use of gallic acid as a developing agent in Talbot’s Calotype process. Allegations that Reade had used gallic acid in photography prior to the sealing of the Calotype patent became of some significance during the early 1850s; attention will therefore be given to the Calotype patent lawsuits of 1852 and 1854, and to the agitation that led up to these events. Talbot’s Calotype Patent The Calotype paper process, which was published in 1841, is often considered to be W. H. F. Talbot’s principal contribution to the evolution of the basic system of photography with which we are familiar today.

  • 1. Before Photography
    1. Before Photography Part 1: Discovering Light The most basic aspect of photography is our understanding of how light works, and the first known writings on this come from well over two thousand years ago in China. Mo Ti (later known as Mo Tsu) was a philosopher who lived from 470 to 391 BC. Unlike most philosophers he came from a poor background, perhaps why his teachings were based on the conviction that all men were of equal worth. His followers or 'Moists' were taught that right living demanded they take responsibility for the well being of others and ensured that their actions did not harm others, but practised a universal love for others. If people follow this path, the world is 'ordered and peaceful,' if not, 'the world becomes disorder, violent, and chaotic.' Although difficult to argue against, these ideas did not generally win the affection of the rich and powerful, and Moism soon died out. Mo Ti also thought deeply about the natures of shadows, realising that they were formed by light travelling in straight lines, the first recorded law of optics. He also was able to use this to explain why the images formed when light entered a darkened room through a small aperture were inverted, so can be credited both with recognising the role of an aperture in forming an image and also with an understanding of what later became known as the 'camera obscura' which will be looked at in more detail in a later section. Back in the more primitive west, the Greek philosophers were also noticing similar effects.

In the summer of 2010, Lauren Bon’s Metabolic Studio, in partnership with the Handmade Film Institute, began the quest to make a picture not only “of,” but quite literally “out of” the landscape of the Owens Valley. INTRODUCTION Sodium Thiosulfate Chloride, Bromide, or Iodide Salts In the Summer of 2010 Lauren Bon invited Robert Nitrogen (amine) or Sulfur (mercapto) Organic Schaller from the Hand Made Film institute to collaborate Compounds on a film workshop in the Owens Dry Lakebed, in the Ammonium Thiosulfate and Sodium Thiosulfate Owens Valley of California. For that workshop, a photographic developer was synthesized using trona ash Of these only a few compounds are regularly used in collected from the desiccated lake.
