Re: Re: [ISC_ML] On principles of good photography


Hi,

I really miss my first camera, it had a depth-of-field of zero
to
infinity, the problem was that one had to remember the image in
youre mind, as it did not have film to record.
My brother and sister helped me make the camera, with a little
help from Mom, with some butter, that we rubbed on plane paper to
make
a ground-glass, where the image was formes and viewed.
And ,thanks to Dad, for buying a new pair of shoes, and using
the shoe box, work started on the manufacture of the camera,
with butter paper on one side and a pin hole on the opposite, we
saw some great images, and with full DOF, i remember one image of
our pet
tortoise at one inch away, and the tree in the background, both in
focus, it was great fun.
I plan to make the pin hole camera again, but this time, will
record the image on digital camera, with long exposure time, off
the ground glass....or maybe replace the lens with a PIN-HOLE!
All The Best To Everyone
gary
