On This Date in Photography

By James McArdle. Discover photography now, through its past. Click on any date to access a long read posted that day.

On This Date In Photography is a blog which does just that…provides a leaf from each day of the calendar of historical and contemporary photographic events, people, images, places and technology.

On This Date In Photography is a live blog, and each post is created on the date in the title.  Each is an adventure in photography, the medium I have loved all my life in looking at photographs, making them, teaching about and with them, and in thinking especially about how the eye and the camera differ in their ways of ‘seeing’.
