"Trunks of Maple and Birch with Oak
Leaves, Passaconaway Road, New Hampshire"
This was taken on October 7, 1956
Eliot Porter (1901–1990) introduced color to landscape photography. In so doing, he created a new way of viewing the world that today has become commonplace. An artist with strong scientific and environmental interests, Porter took up color in 1939, long before his fellow photographers accepted the medium, to produce more accurate photographs of birds. Soon thereafter, he expanded his focus to celebrate the colorful beauty of nature in general. Over a fifty-year career that includes works from Maine to China, he built a broad popular reputation based on thousands of richly hued prints and twenty-five books. His work energized environmentalists, drew accolades from museums, and created the foundations for today’s color nature photography
Hi!!
ReplyDeleteI agree with you 100% about sunscreen ^^ I should try your tip about that foundation, to change my opinion, i guess I'm not trying the right brands ^^ and I must confess you are an expert about skin products, so why not to give it a try! About Egypt, I went there 5 years ago, and yes, I shall do a post with some photos :)
About your post, what a beautiful article! The work is indeed incredible and so relevant to history of photography**Thanks for sharing :)
