A lo largo de la historia los seres humanos han deseado capturar la realidad para inmortalizar un momento, el aspecto de una persona o el mundo que les rodea. Así nació la pintura, cuyos orígenes hay que buscarlos en el paleolítico. Pero la pintura tiene sus particularidades. Pasa por el tamiz del artista y que sea más o menos fidedigna depende de los consensos culturales de cada época y de la habilidad y el instrumental que emplee el pintor. En la pintura la imaginación juega un papel primordial, ya que se puede pintar lo que se desee. Es un modo un tanto libre de plasmar la realidad circundante y, como tal, puede estar sometido a todo tipo de alteraciones. El primer paso hacia la captura fiel del mundo exterior lo dio un químico alemán llamado Johann Heinrich Schulze a principios del siglo XVIII, en plena revolución científica. Schulze empleó una suspensión fotosensible para capturar imágenes temporales de letras, aunque sin conseguir conservarlas permanentemente. Décadas más tarde, y tras una serie de infructuosas pruebas, el británico Thomas Wedgwood intentó sin éxito fijar imágenes de manera permanente, creando fotogramas detallados pero efímeros. Schulze y Wedgwood habían conseguido la captura, pero no que ésta permaneciese. Los avances en la industria química permitieron al francés Nicéphore Niépce en 1826 fijar de forma indeleble la primera imagen captada por una cámara, aunque, eso sí, tras efectuar una exposición muy larga. Su colaboración con Louis Daguerre llevó al desarrollo del daguerrotipo en 1839, el primer método fotográfico comercialmente viable. Este proceso utilizaba una placa de plata yodada que reducía el tiempo de exposición a unos pocos minutos y ofrecía una claridad y detalle sin precedentes. Paralelamente, en Inglaterra, William Henry Fox Talbot inventó el calotipo, que permitía la creación de negativos de papel de los cuales se podían hacer múltiples copias positivas. Esto permitió abaratar el proceso y hacerlo más accesible. La competencia entre estos dos métodos iniciales impulsó más innovaciones, como el proceso de colodión en la década de 1850, que combinaba la calidad de imagen del daguerrotipo con la reproductibilidad del calotipo. La fotografía continuó evolucionando con la introducción de la película flexible por George Eastman en 1888 y su cámara Kodak, que democratizó la fotografía con un lema publicitario que decía "Usted presiona el botón, nosotros hacemos el resto". Este avance simplificó enormemente el proceso y, sobre todo, lo popularizó. A principios del siglo XX la fotografía se había convertido ya en algo muy común al alcance de prácticamente todo el mundo. Pero esas fotografías de los primeros tiempos eran en blanco y negro. Los seres humanos vemos en color por lo que aparecieron especialista en coloreado. Los químicos, entretanto, se concentraron en conseguir capturas en color, algo que consiguieron en 1907 con el proceso Autochrome de los hermanos Lumière. Las fotos en color eran costosas al principio. Hasta mediado el siglo XX no se popularizaron gracias a películas para el gran público como la Kodachrome y la Agfacolor. Esta tecnología permitió capturar y reproducir el mundo en todo su espectro cromático, expandiendo así las posibilidades artísticas y documentales de la fotografía, que para finales del siglo XX era ya omnipresente. Fue en ese momento cuando se produjo la revolución digital. Steven Sasson de Eastman Kodak creó el primer prototipo de cámara digital en 1975, dando comienzo a una transición que en unos años haría obsoletas las técnicas fotoquímicas tradicionales. La fotografía digital no solo permitió la edición y manipulación de imágenes de formas antes impensables, sino que extendió aún más la práctica, especialmente con la incorporación de cámaras en los teléfonos inteligentes y la conexión de estos a internet a principios del siglo XXI.

In the past week, Phase One Ambassador Reuben Wu and longtime Sports Illustrated photographer Walter Iooss Jr sold pieces for nearly $60,000 each. Is it tulip mania or another mechanism for photographers to realize value from their work.

With the holiday season upon us (and today's celebration of the 86th anniversary of the repeal of prohibition) we figured it a good time to revisit a wonderful episode on food photography. We will return next week with a new "Cameras of the Year" episode. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Photographing food is far from being a new facet of photography. Whether for commercial or artistic purposes—think William Henry Fox Talbot, Edward Weston, Irving Penn—it can be found throughout eras and styles, but it sure seems like we are currently witnessing a boom in food photography. With the foodie culture exploding and the profusion of #foodstagramming, there is no shortage of photographed meals flying around the Internet. Our guests on today’s episode of the B&H Photography Podcast have a wealth of experience in this arena, having shot food photography for a combined total of... many years. Specifically, they join us to talk about their latest book, "Eating Delancey: A Celebration of Jewish Food", but while at it, we discuss food photography in general, from gear and technique to workflow for editorial and commercial assignments, and even for cookbooks. We also discuss the change in food photography styles over the years and ask their opinions on the proliferation of “food selfies.” Aaron Rezny has photographed major campaigns for Nestlé, Duncan Hines, Kellogg's, Russell Stover, Nabisco, and Applebee’s, and his work has appeared in Bon Appétit, Food & Wine, New York Magazine, and other publications. Jordan Schaps is an author, Professor of Photography at the School of Visual Arts, and the former Director of Photography at New York Magazine. He has produced shoots for inStyle, GQ, Lincoln Motors, and many other commercial and editorial clients. Together, they have produced a wonderfully engaging book.

The acclaimed Ghanaian photographer Nii Obodai is renowned for his distinctive black and white hazy silhouettes of distant landscapes and his stark compassionate portraits. As a youngster he spent time in England and now he’s back as artist-in-residence in the East Riding of Yorkshire, where he’s working on a new exhibition on environmental themes. Nii is spending time in the marshes and woodland of the nearby nature reserve, photographing wildlife and the people who tend the landscape. But he’s not using the latest digital camera to take his pictures – instead he’s interweaving the techniques of the past by learning to photograph with an old-fashioned large format Deardorff camera, shooting in black and white and making prints. The work is based on techniques used by one of the founding fathers of British photography, William Henry Fox Talbot. Felicity Finch joins Nii as he explores the marshlands and prepares to take his pictures which will be displayed in the Beverley Art Gallery. She follows him through the process – which can take hours – of waiting for the birds to come into shot, pressing the shutter and reloading the films. She also watches as he takes portraits of the workers at the reservoir. Later in the seaside town of Scarborough we hear how Nii develops the films in the total darkness of an ad hoc darkroom and uses the traditional method of salt printing to create images in a variety of monochrome tones of rich earthy browns. It’s a learning process for Nii and while most of the images turn out the way he wants, others are less successful. We hear how he begins to make his final selections and how he is influenced by the potency of memory and landscape.

Melvyn Bragg and guests discuss the development of photography in the 1830s, when techniques for 'drawing with light' evolved to the stage where, in 1839, both Louis Daguerre and William Henry Fox Talbot made claims for its invention. These followed the development of the camera obscura, and experiments by such as Thomas Wedgwood and Nicéphore Niépce, and led to rapid changes in the 1840s as more people captured images with the daguerreotype and calotype. These new techniques changed the aesthetics of the age and, before long, inspired claims that painting was now dead.
