Early photography: Crater of Volcano, Quetzaltenango-Guatemala – Eadweard Muybridge

Sharing my favorite images from the early days of photography… Title: Crater of Volcano, Quetzaltenango-Guatemala Date: 1875 Location: Guatemala Photographer: Eadweard Muybridge (1830-1904) Process: albumen silver print from glass negative Born Edward Muggeridge, Eadweard Muybridge is famous for his photographic studies of motion and early work in motion-picture projection. In the late 1870s, he pioneered a method of “instantaneous photography.” A clockwork mechanism triggered the shutters of several cameras one by one at rhythmic intervals. In 1875, Muybridge travelled for over a year in Central America on a photographic expedition. Source and information: The Metropolitan Museum of Art
