My latest exploration of early photography in Washington State just arrived in today's mail. It's the story of famous (and infamous) photographer Eadweard Muybridge and his little-known 1871 trip to document the lighthouses along Washington's coast. It's in the summer issue of Columbia, the magazine of the Washington State Historical Society.

Kiowa photographer Horace Poolaw (Fà:bô), one of the first professional Native photographers of the early 20th century, made this charming portrait of three children in their Sunday finest. They are identified as Newton Poolaw (left), Jerry Poolaw (middle), and Elmer Thomas Suankeah (right) around 1928.

Super delighted to have my essay on early photography boats published in the new Daguerreian Society Annual. If you're interested in early photography of any kind, The Daguerreian Society is a must-join organization.

Canadian photographer Hannah Maynard (183401918) set the high bar for photomontage prints. From 1880 to 1885, she created dozens of increasingly complex images. Her masterpiece was a single image made up of 22,000 individual portraits.

Modern color photography is amazing, but there's something about an autochrome that just leaps off the page. This 1915 portrait of an unidentified woman by Rudolph Dührkoop is a great example of the art.

I'm fascinated by early American floating photography galleries. Most were simple flatboats that floated without motor power down rivers, but some of them were very elaborate. In my research thus far, I've found 65 different boats that operated on the Ohio, Mississippi, and other rivers.
