Ingaphezulu kwenyanga e-1 eyadlulayo sasiphambi kwethu ubuqhetseba obuye baba nguMcCurry ngolo foto lwenkululeko ukuya yenza loo mifanekiso ibonakale ezikhokelele ekubeni abengomnye wabafoti abadumileyo kwaye izinto azithathileyo ziye zenziwa ngamajelo eendaba athandwayo afana ne-National Geographic Imagazini engayivumeliyo le fom yokuphinda ubambe iifoto, kuba yenza ukuba ulahlekelwe ngulo mzuzu apho indalo ibanjiwe ikwimo yayo eshushu.
Bekusoloko kukho ukubuyela umva okukhulu esidlangalaleni ngokuchasene neefoto ezenziwa ngokwamanani kwimithombo yeendaba, kwaye zihlala zizizathu ezifanelekileyo: Iifoto ezihleliweyo ngobuninzi zibeka ababukeli kulindelo olungeyonyani, ngaphandle kokulahlekisa ngokupheleleyo kwelona gama libi. Indawo yeSizwe akukho ngaphandle kolu hlobo lokuhamba kweefoto ezibamba indalo okanye umntu ngokwakhe kwindawo yakhe yokuhlala.
Imagazini ngoku ipapashe isiqwenga esenza amagqabantshintshi ngaso bakhawuleza kangakanani ukufota ezo foto Baqhatha uluntu ngeendlela ezithile ezilula zeFotohop. Uyanyanzelisa ukuba abafoti (bobabini abaxhamli kunye nabadlali ngokufanayo) kufuneka babonelele ngeefayile zeRAW xa kunokwenzeka, kwaye baya kubuza nabani na ongenazo ezo fayile.
Nokuba iphephancwadi eli ligcina ukuba ayisiyonto yokwenza uqeqesho, kodwa sele ikho imeko apho ezinye iifoto ziye zaliwa ngenxa yesi sizathu. Oku akuthethi ukuba iNational Geographic iyaphikisana nomqondo "wokuphucula" iifoto. Ngaba ngohlobo oluthile lokuqhubekeka, enokuqondakala xa umfoti efuna ukuqaqambisa imibala ethile okanye andise ukukhanya koko bakubonayo ngamehlo abo.
Ke ngoko, upapasho luzimisele ukuthintela ukuphindwaphindwa ezinye zeempazamo ezenziwe kwii-80s, xa wayevumela ukuphinda kulungiswe ezinye iifoto ezikumgangatho ophezulu kwaye ezakwazi ukuba yinxalenye yesigqubuthelo semagazini uqobo.
