Photography is an ever-growing trend in our society and has been a prominent feature in the world for the last few hundred years. There is more to photography than just hitting a button. To get a better understanding of how to photography works we need to take a look at the beginning and see how photography advanced through the ages. It 's hard to imagine if photography was never invented we would still be painting in place. A selfie would take hours not just seconds.

He developed a method called color separation, in which he ran three black and white photographs through a red, green and blue filter. The photos were then transferred to a lantern slides in which the colors, depending on which filter, could be seen. This is a very crude method still of installing color into photography but it 's still a step in the right direction. The use of dry plate in photography was the next advancement. This is when a glass plate is coated with a gelatin emulsion of silver bromide where a picture could be imprinted on. It was able to be mass produced adding to its benefits. This idea came from R.L. Maddox. This idea was morphed into the celluloid film base idea. This is a transparent substrate that behaves like a support medium for the photosensitive emulsion projected onto it. This was the first time a roll of film could be easily used in a …show more content…
A man named Ansel Adams believed that sharing beauty through photography was a way to raise awareness for problems that we face in the world. His focus on the wilderness and its conservation. By photographing the nature beauties that are found around the world and bringing attention to keeping them as beautiful as possible, he has helped lead the much needed conservational awareness that we need.

In his letter to Cedric Wright, he expresses his devotion to love, friends, and art. He describes love as a necessity in life that allows you to not be alone.
