FilmAnalysis · 照片背后的故事

女儿的一个问题

从照片出发,读一段摄影史。故事和照片之间只是阅读上的联想,不代表照片的作者、相机或实际用的胶卷。

1943 · 摄影史

1943 年,埃德温·兰德一家在新墨西哥州圣塔菲度假。他给年幼的女儿拍照,女儿问,为什么不能马上看到刚拍的照片。

兰德后来回忆,他在镇上散步,一小时之内就想清楚了相机、胶片和化学过程该是什么样子。宝丽来的即显摄影,就从这个问题开始。

不妨试试

拍一张照片后先不看屏幕,过一天再看。对照一下,你记得的画面和拍下的画面有什么不同。

「不妨试试」是编辑设计的练习,不是史实。

A question from his daughter

Read a little photographic history. These connections suggest ways to look; they say nothing about authorship, cameras or the physical film stock.

1943 · History

In 1943 Edwin Land's family was on holiday in Santa Fe, New Mexico. He photographed his young daughter, and she asked why she could not see the picture at once.

Land later recalled that on a walk through the town, within an hour, the camera, the film and the chemistry became clear to him. Polaroid's instant photography began with that question.

Try this

After taking a picture, wait a day before looking at it. Compare what you remember with what the camera recorded.

"Try this" is an exercise written by the editors, not history.
