Resumen: Photography self taught by Lloyd I. Snodgrass is an instructional guide written in the early 20th century. It teaches the principles and practice of making photographs, from choosing equipment to exposure, development, and printing, with brief coverage of motion pictures and the broader uses of photography. The book begins by explaining the photographic process in plain terms, then surveys materials and tools: camera types (box, folding, reflex), lens behavior and varieties (including wide‑angle, telephoto, and soft focus), stops and shutters, films and plates with notes on color sensitivity and filters, and printing papers. It next shows how to make a picture—loading roll film and packs, selecting viewpoint and lighting, composing with simplicity and balance, setting focus, stop, and shutter, and using practical exposure guides for landscapes, moving subjects, and interiors, plus clear advice on home portrait lighting and flash. Development is covered step by step (tank and tray methods, developers, fixing, washing, drying) with a guide to diagnosing negative faults. Printing follows (paper types and contrasts, exposure and development, stop bath, fixing, washing), then enlarging, sepia toning, and finishing skills such as trimming, mounting, spotting, and hand coloring. A later chapter explains motion‑picture principles and home‑movie practice with small‑gauge safety film and projectors, and the closing survey maps photography’s scope in business, science, illustration, and color processes (like autochrome and three‑color printing), ending with advances using special rays and filters.
