welcome..
Welcome to my photography page. On here I can show my true passion for photography and aim to show it through my pictures. I pick my best and worst pictures of a shoot and analyse them and explain why they are my favorite or simply awful. I think the reason I was interested in photography is because I was amazed by how one picture can tell a story without using any words, and I love how different viewers can interpret the same picture in different ways.
the history of photography...
Photography is a word derived from the Greek words photos ("light") and graphein ("to draw"). The use of cameras has allowed us to capture historical moments and reshape the way we see ourselves and the world around us.
the first photograph...
The worlds first photograph made in a camera was taken in 1826 by a person named Joseph Nicéphore Niépce.
The first coloured photograph was taken by the mathematical physicist, James Clerk Maxwell.

CAMERA EVOLUTION...
George Eastman, was the man who started manufacturing paper film in 1885 before switching to celluloid in 1889. His first camera, was called the "Kodak".
Kodak released the first professional digital camera system (DCS) which was of a great use for photojournalists.
In 2005 the cannon launched and this is what we take our pictures with now a days.
