The Future is Bright

5 04 2008

As we can see creators and designers of digital photo cameras are not going to rest on their laurels but continuing to gladden our hearts and eyes with their radical new concepts and inventions again and again. For instance, right now well known Fuji is working on digital camera glove concept. It means that with moving the fingers the shutter is triggered and the lens is worn like a ring - that would be just a rather silly idea were it not for the fact that. Generally speaking why do people still need a digital camera and a camera mobile phone? Actually there are many admirers and number opponents still persisting in their opinion in unceasing discussion about using mobile phone as a photo camera. I think that the appearance of Photoshop, with its great creative possibilities to edit and work up an image has played one of the main role in the stable interest to photographing.

But everyone knows that today one can find out, download and use any Photoshop Plugin, photo filters or Photoshop Masking, which allow anyone who wishes to work wonders with any picture, photo or drawing.

The Largest Photo with Camera Obscura

13 09 2007

Activists of well known Legacy Project didn’t waste their time this summer. They used Camera Obscura to create the world’s largest photograph. The image is a 28-foot-tall, 108-foot-wide black-and-white negative of a runway. The Great Picture is expected to establish the new Guinness World Records categories of largest camera and largest photograph, the organizers say. The picture is a throwback to the early days of photographic technology.

I’ve found it looks wonderful. And that is not because this photograph is the biggest one but because I’ve got tired from multitude digital imagines I guess that all of them (never mind it is bad or perfect) look like the same, even after working with digital photos in Photoshop it don’t afford me pleasure already.
However I love this picture and applaud to fellows which got it and to their patience and staying-power :-)

By the way for those who don’t know what is a camera obscura? It (lat. dark chamber) was an optical device used in drawing, and one of the ancestral threads leading to the invention of photography, today’s photographic devices are still known as “cameras”.
The principle of the camera obscura is demonstration of reak reflection with a rudimentary type, just a box (which may be room-size) with a hole in one side, that lets the light from only one part of a scene to pass through the hole and strike a specific part of the back wall. The projection is made on paper on which an artist can then copy the image. You can try, it’s easy.
