Abstract
GREAT is the number of photographers, but how few are those who have any conception of the action of the rays of light on the photographic plate? Every one who dabbles in the “black art” should try to make himself or herself acquainted with some of the rudiments of this side of the subject, for a knowledge of principles helps not only to render the results more perfect, but to add an additional interest to the pursuit of this science.
