Download or read book Born to Lens written by Randy Stark and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2007-04 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These wry, self-deprecating poems-or verbal movies-may seem on first reading-or first viewing-merely vibrant wordplay, images on paper, light on a silver screen. But once internalized, the poems reveal a deep and empathetic comprehension of the beauty and loneliness contained in the most mundane human activities. Illuminating the exquisite darkness with humor and satire, Randy Stark reveals an entertaining antidote to modern despair. From "The Impressionist" Here's my impression of life in Exactamundo: Exactly enough scientists, flowers and fish, Exactly enough corneal transplants and trimmers and edgers, Exactly enough outlets to let the creative side out in, Exactly the quantity it should be let out in, Exactly enough pumpkins turning into exactly enough casino buses, Exactly enough timepieces on exactly enough wrists.

Download or read book A History of the Photographic Lens written by Rudolf Kingslake and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 1989-11-22 with total page 347 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The lens is generally the most expensive and least understood part of any camera. In this book, Rudolf Kingslake traces the historical development of the various types of lenses from Daguerre's invention of photography in 1839 through lenses commonly used today. From an early lens still being manufactured for use in low-cost cameras to designs made possible through such innovations as lens coating, rare-earth glasses, and computer aided lens design and testing, the author details each major advance in design and fabrication. The book explains how and why each new lens type was developed, and why most of them have since been abandoned. This authoritative history of lens technology also includes brief biographies of several outstanding lens designers and manufacturers of the past.
