A photographers' alphabet, A to Z * Oregon ArtsWatch
Briefly

The text presents an unconventional exploration of photography through an alphabetical structure. Each letter from A to W represents a different concept, term, or related humorous observation. Terms like aperture, bokeh, copyright, and exposure illustrate key technical aspects, while others like landscape and Photoshop introduce cultural commentary. Each entry captures the duality of technical definitions and personal interpretations, reflecting a whimsical yet grounded view of photography's complexities.
A is for aperture. The hole a peeping Tom peers through. (Also, A.I. - A technological development that is to photography what the bubonic plague was to Western Europe.)
F is for foreground. A compositional element between threeground and fiveground.
I is for interchangeable-lens camera. A camera for photographers with commitment issues.
M is for midtones. The least controversial of tones.
