The quantization of the electromagnetic field in vacuum is presented without
reference to lagrangean quantum field theory. The equal time commutators of the
fields are calculated from basic principles. A physical discussion of the
commutators suggest that the electromagnetic fields are macroscopic emergent
properties of more fundamental physical system: the photons.
