Camera Obscura

Follow us:WhatsappFacebookTwitterTelegram.cls-1{fill:#4d4d4d;}.cls-2{fill:#fff;}Google NewsThe camera obscura is, simply put, any dark room. But this dark room captures the image and plonks it on the opposite wall. Yes, its upside down but then what's life without a few ..umm, ups and downs, shall we say.

Now, this isn't what you would call a dark room, would you?

So why am I calling it camera obscura.

Firstly, it's a nicely pretentious name.

I like photography. That's another reason.

I am a little partial towards Latin as well (didn't think a TV journo would say that, did you?)

And its got an umbilical link with the word 'obscure.'

You know, boss wants us to explain things to all of you - on and off camera. So don't freak if I grow - while my hairline gently recedes -
fond of the semantics of 'obscure.' Or is it semiotics? Well, it's a visual medium.

Right!

I thought I'd drop by and say hello. first published:December 30, 2005, 17:31 ISTlast updated:December 30, 2005, 17:31 IST
