About	From a millennial perspective, photography is an art form in its infancy. In 1839, two processes for capturing images and transferring them to a medium evolved. The Daguerreotype, named after Louis Jacques Daguerre, created a "unique, unduplicatable, laterally reversed monochromatic picture on a metal plate," as described by Naomi Rosenblum in "A World History of Photography" (Abbeville Press). The other process produced a reversed image on paper that was then placed in contact with a chemically treated surface, exposed to sunlight, which resulted in a picture with a normal image. This process was named a Talbotype after its inventor, William Henry Fox Talbot. The European and American culture of the 19th century had a craving for greater representations of reality. This appetite had roots in Renaissance painting and increased with developments in science and industry. Samuel F. B. Morse, inventor of the electromagnetic telegraph, was an early publicist and experimenter with the daguerreotype. His work with scientist John William Draper spread the knowledge of this early art, teaching famed Civil War photographer Matthew Brady. Today, millions of photographic images are produced everyday. The age old aphorism "seeing is believing," if written today, would include the addendum "but confirmed with a photo." Every photo is but a fool's image of ourselves, but it is good to recognize the fool within us.

the background panel is made up of wooden branches from local woods, which actually was another capture and inserted in with PS to cover up the window at the end of the hall...

James Philip Pegg {K:10138} 3/20/2005

Cool shot! I also like the background design. It is to bad that that we can't photograph our intermost self, OUR VERY SOUL. Photography as is art, has many avenues; love is carried through many vessels. Your oceans are your colours, your ship is your camera and your treasures are in your heart. Cheers, James
