Straight Photography

Straight photography refers to photography that attempts to depict a scene as realistically and objectively as permitted by the medium, forsaking the use of manipulation both pre-exposure (e.g., filters, lens coatings, soft focus) and post-exposure (e.g., unusual developing and printing methods). The opposite of straight photography is pictorialism. The differentiation between these two approaches came into being in the early 20th century. A circle of famous photographers who espoused straight photography, Group f/64, was founded in 1932.
