Camera Lucidia

One of the most interesting things in this article for me was the comparison at the beginning between photography being invented by painters, or invented by scientists. People do not always consider photography as a scientific process, when, especially with film photography, it is. This is an interesting way to view photography as a whole, because most people see just the image, and the color and beauty of the image, like they would with a painting. In reality photography deals directly with science and the process is more complicated than it appears to be on the surface. This article is relevant to our project. I like the way the different readings offered new viewpoints to different aspects of photography.
