AT DAWN By W. J. Jordan Agfa Superpan — I /25 at F32 There does not yet, however, exist a practical method or instrument which permit determining of the total visual contrast in the object or its three components, brightness contrast, hue contrast, and saturation contrast in relation to the characteristic of the negative material. The explanation that, even without this important link, the reproduction of satisfactory and artistically beautiful photographic results is possible lies in the fact that artistic satisfaction created by a photographic reproduction is largely independent of the degree of correct natural reproduction. This is possibly due to the many visual sensation impressions received and recorded in our daily lives and which are all of widely different contrast relations, so much so that regardless of our familiarity with the object our artistic imagination will very likely find the reproduction artistically pleasing no matter how truthfully the original visual contrast has been rendered.
