The CAMERA LUCIDA in the wood!

Here some pictures with the Canon PowerShot A200 through the Camera Lucida!
I've taken the photos in my park and in my wood.

CATALISA: The Photography Workshop!

Today was the great photography workshop hosted by Charles Steuck!
First he talked, of course, about photography (what is a photo? what is a camera? a camera obscura? etc.).
After this, Charles presented us a kind of a selfmade Camera Lucida or such a finder, because it hasn't a mirror or prism. Many landscape painters and photographers used and use a camera lucida or a finder for a better view.
Everybody got one and we should go out and use it with a normal camera or just with our eyes.

First some impressions of this session:













Through the camera lucida with the Canon Rebel XSi (Yes, it is another way to take a picture through another camera.):
















Through the camera lucida with the Canon PowerShot A200:







The workshop was very good!
Thanks to Charles for it and the camera lucida!
