Eliot Porter

Eliot Porter (1901-1990) introduced color to landscape photography. Porter started adding color to his photo prints in 1939, long before any others photographers had accepted this process. He added color to both landscapes and especially birds to create and celebrate the colorful beauty of nature in general. His 50 year career put out tens of thousands of artworks. These artworks are on display from now until september 17 at the Getty Center, Los Angeles, Ca, 310-440-7300. www.getty.edu
