The following list describes some common types of photography. From a plane, helicopter, balloon or other airborne device. Adventure sports, daring feats, etc. Any type of photography practiced by non-professionals. Pets and their relationships with humans. Note that the human content is often as important as the animal. The art of making property appear attractive. Often involves panoramic photography. Photography in which creative composition is the goal. Space photography, through a telescope. A controversial type of photography which some claim can photograph a person's aura. Often confused with Kirlian photography. Not simply photography without colour, black and white photography explores shapes, tones and textures. Shadows and highlights become much more important. "Convenience" photography using a mobile phone's built-in camera. While not the best quality, camera phones have opened a new world of spontaneous, on-the-spot photo opportunities. Product shots, advertising, etc. Photography through a telescope or binoculars. Journalism, Events, Historical, Political, etc. Concerts, parties, festivals, weddings, etc. Police and legal photography. Photography in which the recording medium is sensitive to infrared light rather than the normal visible light spectrum. For use on posters, billboards, etc. A type of contact print photography in which an object touching a photographic plate is connected to a high voltage source, creating an aura-like image. Often confused with aura photography. The art of photographing very small and/or close-up objects. Specialized photography for clinical purposes, i.e. to help reveal and diagnose illness. Any technique for photographing objects too small to be visible to humans. Photographing objects to be converted into 3D models. Landscapes, animals, plants, sea, etc. Any technique used to capture images at night. Often includes infrared photography. Views of wide areas, up to complete 360° panoramas. Ghosts, unexplained phenomena, etc. Candid, Family, Fashion, Glamour, Passports & Visas, Portrait, Pregnancy, School, Sports, Wedding Uses the most basic type of camera possible — a box with a tiny hole to let light in. Landscape, Cityscape Views of Earth from orbit. Any specialized photography used for scientific endeavour, e.g. electron microscopy photographs, medical photography, astrophotography, etc. The specialized art of shooting people engaged in sports, games and adventure activities. Involves taking two photos simultaneously to simulate 3-D vision. Photographs taken for distribution to other people, for use in their projects. These photos tend to be quite generic, e.g. people working, landscapes, places, etc. Photographs with a very long exposure, used to illustrate something happening over time. A popular example is a street at night with car lights blurred into long lines. Photography to showcase locations, illustrate travel literature, etc. Photography in which the recording medium is sensitive to ultraviolet light rather than the normal visible light spectrum. Emphasizing urban environments. Any type of photography taken under water with a water-tight camera housing. .

  • 10 Tips for Better Patient Care and Better Business
    The Dermatologist’s Guide to Effective Clinical Photography 10 Tips for Better Patient Care and Better Business Photography has become essential to the practice of dermatology and aesthetic surgery. It provides a mechanism to improve patient care, enrich your documentation, aid in patient education/consultation, and allow you to set realistic expectations for your patients through the use of “before and after” images for cosmetic procedures. Despite the power of great photography, most medical practitioners find it difficult to capture high quality images.

  • On Photography, Trans Visibility, and Legacies of the Clinic
    arts Article Condition Verified: On Photography, Trans Visibility, and Legacies of the Clinic Chase Joynt 1,* and Emmett Harsin Drager 2 1 The Department of Gender Studies, University of Victoria, Victoria, BC V8P 5C2, Canada 2 Department of American Studies & Ethnicity, University of Southern California, Los Angeles, CA 90089, USA; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 1 September 2019; Accepted: 31 October 2019; Published: 13 November 2019 Abstract: We approach this paper with a shared investment in historical and contemporary representations of trans and gender non-conforming people, and our individual research in the archives of early US Gender Clinics. Together, we consider what is at stake—or what might be possible—when we connect legacies of photography used as diagnostic tools in gender clinics with snapshots of early, community-based gatherings, and the presence of trans people in contemporary art. From the archives of Robert J. Stoller and photos of Casa Susanna, to the collaborative photography of Zackary Drucker and Amos Mac, and the biometric data art-theory experiments of Zach Blas, we engage a series of image-based projects, which animate underlying questions and socio-political debates about the politics of visuality, and visibility’s impact on trans and gender non-conforming people. Moreover, we argue that rhetorical strategies of proof—from conditions verified in clinics to shared existence through photography—are tethered to, and thus trapped by, the logics and discipline of legibility and re-institutionalization. Keywords: gender clinics; photography; transgender; Robert J. Stoller; visibility; opacity; Casa Susanna; Zackary Drucker; Amos Mac 1. Preface A photograph is a secret about a secret.

No science or art not strictly medical…will more richly repay the scientific physician.” So argued Ransford E. Van Gieson in an 1860 issue of the New York Medical Journal. Intoxicated with photography, “this truly beautiful science” in “this the most progressive of all centuries,” the 24- year-old surgeon from Brooklyn, New York, made a pact with his medical readers: we physician-photographers will be vectors of science and modernity. Like other ambitious young men in mid- century, Van Gieson was a convinced historicist: “modern times” were a new dispensation, an era of transformative discovery and invention, unlike any prior era. And, for Van Gieson, photography was an emblematic technology of mo- dernity with unique epistemological virtues that could vitally contribute to the progress of scientific medicine.
