Photography Question 

Karolyn R. Moltzan
 

Library of Congress Exhibit


This isn't really a question - I wasn't sure how else to get the word out. The Library of Congress has a new exhibit of Depression Era photos in color. Most of are so used to seing this time in history in black and white or sepia, which makes this so astounding! They are reproduced from color slides. To view them go to http://www.loc.gov/exhibits/boundforglory/glory-exhibit.html

I thoroughly enjoyed looking through them, hope some of you do as well.

  Thanks for letting us know, Karolyn. I'll check it out. Meanwhile, do you know when color transparency film was invented and available for consumer use??

  No, I don't know that! I still consider myself relatively new to photography, and haven't delved into much of the history behind it. Perhaps someone else can answer that?

Thank you for responding!
