Digital Darkroom is the evolution, converting chemical processes to digital ones, cellulose and silver to pixels and bytes. The first digital camera, weighing 8 pounds with a resolution of 0.01 megapixels, was built in 1975 and recorded black and white images to a cassette tape. The first camera which recorded images as computerised files was made by Fuji in 1988 and the first commercially available digital camera was created in 1990.

Traditional Darkroom is where it all began. It started in a world where the word 'photography' didn't yet exist and the art of creating images of reality with light and chemicals sat somewhere between science and magic. Did you know that the mathematicians Aristotle and Euclid describe pinhole cameras in the 4th and 5th centuries?

Darkroom on dA is a tribute to the traditional, involving chemical developing and printing techniques which have barely changed since the birth of photography, a symbol of the modern, making use of technological advances in digital processing, and a whole lot of amazing and beautiful things in between.

Being the Community Volunteer for a niche gallery like Darkroom has been quite an experience so far.

This issue features HDR (high dynamic range) photography, which allows for a greater dynamic range (variation between the light and dark areas) than regular photography. This can have a range of effects, between creating an image more like what you see with your eyes and depicting hyper-real results with a painterly feeling.

Some digital cameras can shoot HDR in-camera but HDR images can also be created using digital editing software with multiple exposures of the same scene. ]]> http://rockstarvanity.deviantart.com/journal/Spirit-Day-A-Bi-Voice-333153225 http://rockstarvanity.deviantart.com/journal/Spirit-Day-A-Bi-Voice-333153225 Fri, 19 Oct 2012 05:17:01 PDT Spirit Day: A Bi Voice nonadult journals/personal RockstarVanity http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/r/o/rockstarvanity.gif?12 Copyright 2012-2013 `RockstarVanity @RockstarVanity

This issue features digital overlays, which are created by layering two or more images (including but not limited to texture and colour layers) to create a final image, mimicking the effect of exposing photographic paper to two or more negatives and/or filters during printing. This differs from photomanipulations, where elements of numerous images are separately extracted and combined to make a final image.

"The shadow is, from the beginnings, a fact with negative effects. In symbolism, we associate it with sinister, dark and indeterminate facts. But that doesn't mean that a shadow must necessarily have negative effects on the consciousness of people. A shadow’s study is only justified in relation to light, so although these two are complete opposites, they are strongly related to one another".
