Example: Rephotography

An interesting idea Mr. Z posted a few weeks ago was that of rephotography, or photography through photography- how meta! (cue accusing cries of "Fithy hipster!")

I particularly enjoy the idea, because it gives a sense of a middleman, reminding us that photographs are not simply the image presented to us but that they are first captured and processed by cameras to provide us with a preservable image. It brings us closer to photography and almost seems to demystify the entire process by injecting science and engineering into it.

Here are a few examples of rephotography I shot with our darling view cameras as subjects.
