P\u0159edstavte si, \u017ee se vzn\u00e1\u0161\u00edte nad Bostonem v roce 1860 a sledujete m\u011bsto z dechberouc\u00edch 2 000 stop. Tato mimo\u0159\u00e1dn\u00e1 perspektiva byla zachycena na nejstar\u0161\u00ed dochovan\u00e9 leteck\u00e9 fotografii na sv\u011bt\u011b, pozoruhodn\u00e9m sn\u00edmku, kter\u00fd nab\u00edz\u00ed pohled do minulosti.<\/p>\n\n
Vyn\u00e1lez horkovzdu\u0161n\u00fdch bal\u00f3n\u016f a fotografie vydl\u00e1\u017edil cestu pro zrod leteck\u00e9 fotografie. V roce 1783 se uskute\u010dnil prvn\u00ed voln\u00fd let horkovzdu\u0161n\u00e9ho bal\u00f3nu, kter\u00fd poprv\u00e9 vynesl \u010dlov\u011bka do vzduchu. O des\u00edtky let pozd\u011bji, v roce 1826, byla po\u0159\u00edzena prvn\u00ed fotografie, kter\u00e1 zachytila pohled z okna.<\/p>\n\n
Teprve v roce 1858 se tyto dv\u011b pr\u016flomov\u00e9 inovace spojily a vznikla prvn\u00ed leteck\u00e1 fotografie. Gaspard-F\u00e9lix Tournachon po\u0159\u00eddil sn\u00edmek Pa\u0159\u00ed\u017ee z v\u00fd\u0161ky a nav\u017edy tak tento okam\u017eik vepsal do historie. Bohu\u017eel se tento sn\u00edmek v pr\u016fb\u011bhu \u010dasu ztratil.<\/p>\n\n
Na\u0161t\u011bst\u00ed se dal\u0161\u00ed v po\u0159ad\u00ed po tomto pr\u016fkopnick\u00e9m sn\u00edmku nach\u00e1z\u00ed v uzn\u00e1van\u00e9m Metropolitn\u00edm muzeu um\u011bn\u00ed v New Yorku. V roce 1860 po\u0159\u00eddil James Wallace Black leteckou fotografii Bostonu z v\u00fd\u0161ky 2 000 stop a zachytil tak m\u011bstskou krajinu, kter\u00e1 se v\u00fdrazn\u011b li\u0161ila od t\u00e9, kterou zn\u00e1me dnes.<\/p>\n\n
Black, zn\u00e1m\u00fd sv\u00fdmi fotografiemi Bostonu po ni\u010div\u00e9m po\u017e\u00e1ru v roce 1872, zah\u00e1jil svou s\u00f3lovou kari\u00e9ru s\u00e9ri\u00ed leteck\u00fdch fotografi\u00ed po\u0159\u00edzen\u00fdch z horkovzdu\u0161n\u00e9ho bal\u00f3nu Samuela Kinga s n\u00e1zvem \u201eQueen of the Air\u201c.<\/p>\n\n
Blackova fotografie Bostonu s n\u00e1zvem \u201eBoston, jak ho vid\u00ed orel a divok\u00e1 husa\u201c odhalila m\u011bsto vid\u011bn\u00e9 z zcela nov\u00e9 perspektivy. Oliver Wendell Holmes, slavn\u00fd b\u00e1sn\u00edk a profesor na Harvardu, popsal sn\u00edmek jako \u201evelmi odli\u0161n\u00fd objekt od stejn\u00e9ho m\u00edsta, jak na n\u011bj st\u00e1l\u00fd ob\u010dan hled\u00ed vzh\u016fru ke sv\u00fdm okap\u016fm a kom\u00edn\u016fm\u201c.<\/p>\n\n
Holmesova slova v\u00fdsti\u017en\u011b zachycuj\u00ed transforma\u010dn\u00ed povahu leteck\u00e9 fotografie. Umo\u017enila lidem vid\u011bt sv\u00e9 okol\u00ed zp\u016fsobem, jak\u00fd nikdy p\u0159edt\u00edm nebyl mo\u017en\u00fd, a nab\u00edzela pohled z pta\u010d\u00ed perspektivy na zn\u00e1m\u00e9 pam\u00e1tky a odhalovala skryt\u00e9 detaily.<\/p>\n\n
Na Blackov\u011b fotografii vynikaj\u00ed jako nezam\u011bniteln\u00e9 pam\u00e1tky kostel Old South Church a kostel Trinity Church. Washington Street proch\u00e1z\u00ed sn\u00edmkem jako \u00fazk\u00e1 \u0161t\u011brbina, zat\u00edmco Milk Street se klikat\u00ed jako star\u00e1 kravsk\u00e1 stezka, co\u017e odr\u00e1\u017e\u00ed jej\u00ed p\u016fvod jako cesty pou\u017e\u00edvan\u00e9 dobytkem.<\/p>\n\n
Slo\u017eit\u00e9 detaily m\u011bsta jsou \u00fa\u017easn\u011b jasn\u00e9, s okny, kom\u00edny a sv\u011btl\u00edky, kter\u00e9 pokr\u00fdvaj\u00ed st\u0159echy dom\u016f. Sn\u00edmek je d\u016fkazem Blackovy dovednosti jako fotografa a pozoruhodn\u00e9ho technologick\u00e9ho pokroku jeho doby.<\/p>\n\n
P\u0159esto\u017ee Boston byl v dob\u011b vzniku Blackovy fotografie zalo\u017een ji\u017e 230 let, m\u011bsto se st\u00e1le vyv\u00edjelo. Sn\u00edmek nab\u00edz\u00ed pohled do minul\u00e9 \u00e9ry a poskytuje hmatateln\u00e9 spojen\u00ed s minulost\u00ed.<\/p>\n\n
Blackova leteck\u00e1 fotografie nen\u00ed pouze historick\u00fdm dokumentem; je to tak\u00e9 um\u011bleck\u00e9 d\u00edlo, kter\u00e9 zachycuje kr\u00e1su a dynamiku rozv\u00edjej\u00edc\u00edho se m\u011bsta.
