The Rock

A Moment in Photographic History:
Henry Peach Robinson was born July 9, 1830 in Ludlow, Shropshire. He was best know for his work in combination printing - joining multiple negatives to form a single image. This is what came before photomontage. Although he wasn’t the first combination printer (Oscar Gustave Rejlander first established it as an art), he did move the form forward. I included Robinson because, frankly, you don’t hear about that many guys named Peach.
A Photographic Quote of Note:
Impressionism has induced the study of what we see and shown us that we all see differently; it has done good to photography by showing that we should represent what we see and not what the lens sees.

All Images are Copyright ©Michael Rawluk. Just thought I would say that although why anyone would want to use them is beyond me. Well, Colette Amelia does on occasion but she always gives me a kiss after. So, if you want to use an image ... we can work something out ;-)
