of pleasure. If you have fifty dollars to invest 
put twenty-five of it in a lens. T he remaining 
twenty-five can be judiciously expended in a 
box, tripod and plate-holders. A good formula 
for developing the negatives may be obtained 
of any local photographer,. It is not advisable to 
purchase a box that is embellished with com¬ 
plicated mechanisms that are constantly gettinsr 
out of order. 
After all, the excellence of the results accom¬ 
plished are dependent upon the skill of the 
artist. I he time of the exposure must be regu¬ 
lated according to the light and the character 
of the subject. To make indiscriminate “shots” 
at all sorts of objects is the pastime of the 
schoolboy and not of the artist. The most beau- 
t,f U I e ff ec t s are obtained by a proper study of 
the lights and shadows of the landscape, coupled 
with a skillful exposure of such duration as is 
best calculated to draw out all the beauties of 
the scene. The dark foliage of trees will re¬ 
quire a longer exposure than a house that has 
been painted white. And in this connection it 
is proper to remark that the most inane and 
insipid feature of the pastime is the photography 
of houses. No artist who is in love with the 
art will waste any of his precious negatives 
upon houses, except, perchance, those that are 
singularly beautiful and rustic in their archi¬ 
tectural conception. 
Landscapes constitute the poetry of pho¬ 
tography. They make up the rhythmic beauty 
of the photographic melody. A proper appre¬ 
ciation of the art is predicted upon the delicate 
impressionableness of the artist with reference 
to natural scenery.
