Group f 64

Group f/64 was a group of photographers espousing a common philosophy. The group was created in 1932. The original membership consisted of:Ansel AdamsImogen CunninghamWillard Van DykeJohn Paul EdwardsConsuelo KanagaAlma LavensonPreston HolderSonia NoskowiakHenry SwiftEdward WestonThe term f/64 refers to the smallest aperture setting on a large format camera, which secures maximum depth of field, rendering a photograph evenly sharp from foreground to background. Such a small aperture implies a long exposure and the selection of relatively slow moving or motionless subject matter, such as landscapes and still life over action and reportage photography.
