Since the creation of photography, photographic images have been used to shape the public’s knowledge through means such as staged photos, photo manipulation, and photos portrayed in the media. These photos have been used to give a visual taste of history all the way from World Wars to nationwide depressions. The camera has been a very significant part of history due to the fact of it giving the opportunity to see what things looked like during different times. Photographers like Henry…

Before the camera was invented it was really difficult to record an image. You had to stand very still for a long time for the picture to be taken. If you moved just a little bit the picture would turn out blurry. In the year of 1881 George Eastman started making dry plates (Dry plates were round disks that were used instead of film). Then in 1883, George Eastman created a thin strip of paper covered in gelatin emulsion and silver balide, which is what we call film. Finally, he invented the…

Any image that has a greater view than the human eye or an aspect ratio of 2:1 is considered a panorama. Panoramic photography was born when the pioneer photographers started using daguerreotype plates put together to form wide-angled scenes. One of the first panoramic photographs was by Martin Behramanx in 1851 showing San Francisco from Rincon Hill. It is thought that the original panorama had 11 plates, but the originals no longer exist. Even thou it was developed 150 years ago people still…

A world without photography seems merely impossible for the modern age humans. Photography is seen throughout our everyday lives, from the television, to smartphones, and on our computers it seems impossible to avoid it. But why would we want to? Photography is a vision, a memory, a moment captured in time that makes it possible for humans to share these moments with others. But more times than not, these moments, visions, photographs are altered, manipulated, and distorted to influence, and…

emotions, thoughts, and perspectives because the subject of a photo can be anything visible. Most commonly seen are photographs of people, items, or scenery. Photography for me is a way to capture moments and memories; a way to freeze time and keep an image or moment the way it is forever. Even though I no longer speak to some people, I have photographs of good memories with them although the memories in my head are not as bright. My photos are not for other people, they are b for me. I do not…

picture, I loved it. Being able to capture an image and keep it for a lifetime has always intrigued me. Over the years, I taught myself more and more about photography. Every little setting, every little detail matters. It's not as simple as just pointing it and pressing the button. You need to think about what image you want to capture, how you're going to capture it, what setting you're going to use, the light you need and more importantly, what the image says. I'm an active person, I love…

By 1826 he was able to figure out how to use these two things together to create the first ever photograph it took him eight hours of light exposure to create an image and not long after all that hard work the image fades away. Another French man by the name of Louis Daguerre also was trying to figure out a way to keep an image which took him about 12 years to figure, but it technique worked a lot better because all it needed was only 30 minutes of light exposure.
