Group f/64

Group f/64 was a collective of 20 photographers in the 1930s who prioritized sharpness, clarity, and detail in their images. They believed in using small apertures (large f/64 numbers) to ensure everything in a photo—from foreground to background—was in focus. Their style favored honest, unmanipulated portrayals of landscapes and everyday scenes, with an emphasis on precise composition and natural lighting. Think of it as a group dedicated to capturing reality with clarity and depth, much like how our eyes perceive detailed scenes, emphasizing technical excellence and straightforward representation of the world.
