Photography - The Old Fashioned Way

 

Before iPhone's 99 Terapixel camera...

Before Sony Mavica digital cameras

Before Kodachrome

Before 35mm film format.

THIS is how photographs were taken. And No, that's not a pair of iPhones at the photographer's foot.

Bonus - Mondrian painting has been hanging upside down for 75 years

Caution

 

On first seeing this faded Ektachrome slide, I thought "Definite Tedious Tuesday slide."

However, reducing it to monochrome, and straightening up the horizontal... it's rather a striking composition. I like it.

I believe that this is of an airport, and the covered walkways that existed before the modern articulated, 20ft above the ground ones.

Bonus - The reason why we view neanderthals as hunched over and degenerate is that the first skeleton to be found was arthritic.

Sometimes, you just see an image and think - "I want a copy of that."

In the days before Right Click, Save As, this is what people did. Photograph the photograph.

White Horse + Girl in Sweater + Smoke.

I'm intrigued by the bumpiness of the car light trails.  I wonder if it's a cobbled street...

Bonus - Sleeping like a log

Bonus 2- After the Scooby Doo gang discovered Meth
