The Film Photography Courses 1 - Basic Photography

<b>The Film Photography Courses</b> includes basic film photography information using the traditional photographic skills which predate digital photography.<br> <br> I have taught traditional photography and digital photography at a number of public universities and colleges for nearly 40 years, but with the rise in digital imaging I felt that many of these legacy techniques and methodologies might be lost. Here I present simple, straight forward information on the basics of photography. Each of the four courses is a stand-alone course, with each building on knowledge from the previous courses. These courses were a university semester in length.<br> <br> <b>Photography 1 - Basic Photography</b> - camera controls, exposure, pinhole photography, film/print processing, presentation methods, 50 significant photographers. All significant course information which I handed out to my many photography students over the years is included except the shooting and writing assignments.<br> <br> Good luck on your adventure using film photography. I pity photographers who haven’t worked under a dim safelight watching with wonderment as an image slowly, miraculously appears in the developer tray. Here is information photographers have used for nearly two centuries. When I began photography, I thought it was magic . . . and I still do. Enjoy!<br> <br> John Henry Johnson
