Color pics of San Francisco after ‘06 quake found

Museum volunteer who brought the Smithsonian Institution believes that the first - color photos of San Francisco after the 1906 earthquake and fire, the city of nearly equal - and perhaps the only one.
Six images were not published, he picked up photography by Frederic Eugene Ives opened a few months after the "big earthquake", April 1906 San Francisco Chronicle reports. Mostly from the roof of the hotel where Ives has been on a visit in October 1906.
They were among the other items donated by Ives beat his son, Herbert, was discovered in 2009 from the National Museum of American History Volunteers Anthony Brooks, while cataloging the collection.
Said Shannon Perich, Assistant Secretary of the history of the Smithsonian collection of photographs, and in spite of taking a photograph hand colored the destruction of the earthquake, the work of Ives is probably the only true color and documentary evidence and facts.
She said that Ives was one of only a few photographers to experiment with color photography in the 20 century pictures in the early San Francisco, means to be seen by a 3 - D invented, but never the success of the business.
"Can you imagine how shocking?" She said.
It is known that Ives visited San Francisco in October 1906, but it is not known whether he threw all the newly discovered photos from a trip, or if he had one before.
Street-level photos are shots of downtown San Francisco, with a tendency to break the ceiling and views from under the rubble. However, they look at the buildings that were damaged by fire and broken ground shaking. Some buildings still exist.
The process used to produce color images by creating a separate chip for each primary color in the spectrum of light requires a long exposure, and therefore do not lead to the arrest of people and objects in motion.
