Jacky's Photograpy

Photography is one of the new media forms that revolutionizes awareness and modifies the structure of our society. It is the art of obtaining accurate images of certain objects by undergoing chemical processes. Photography is the so-called skill of creating reality. According to Jean Luc Godard, photography is truth. The device used in creating or capturing the image desired is known as a camera. The creation made by photography is called negative or photograph.

The creation done by photography originally started in black and white form. This classic look has dominated for several decades due to its reasonable cost. Some photographers still use the 'classic look' that even with the advent of digital imaging, photos are sometimes processed using a variety of techniques just to generate a black and white effect.

Digital photography came in when new technological trends opened a new horizon for fresh artistic visions. With digital camera, one uses full spectrum photography. Photojournalism and professional photography were the first to enjoy the modern accents of digital photography. One only needs to use a little amount of time when transmitting images to the head office. While chemical photography uses film and photographic paper, digital imaging does not need any of this equipment. Digital photography only needs a controlling medium.
Traditional photography held back photographers assigned in remote areas because of the difficulty in obtaining access to processing facilities. In 1981, Sony uncovered the first consumer camera which saved images to disks and, therefore, eliminating the need for film.

From then on, digital photography has become a major consumer product in the world of photography, from Portland photographers in the north to those in Florida in the south, to the east and the west of the United States. However, a 2007 survey conducted by a major camera brand showed that a sizable number of professional photographers continue to use chemical photography which, to them, is still superior over other forms of photography.

It was in the 17th century when color photography started, although the first successful color processing facility was created in 1907. By 1963, the instant color film was introduced and, out of this novelty, photo printing equipment was introduced. While digital photography is a force to be considered, traditional techniques are still regarded as a wonderful learning experience for most photographers.
