Lumiere museum

Much of the tour of the Lumiere museum covered what we had already learned in the assigned reading, but it was exciting to see the original projectors and other instruments. I really loved the blue plate photographs because of how their colors blended in with one another to give an almost paint-like quality. Today we have to use filters to achieve that effect, but I don't think any filter I've seen compares to the original blue plate quality.

  1. I also liked the blue plate photographs. It's crazy what we take for granted by using filters to get the same effect, but you're right it's still not the same.

  2. I also thought it was interesting to see the original projectors and instruments. I was glad I had the chance to use one of the original projectors. I also was very amazed at how good the quality was of the blue plate photographs.
