2. A photograph is a image captured by a camera by using
light and then stored on film or a digital media card – SD
card or for some people it’s a memory captured by light and
saved on paper so they can relook at that moment at
anytime.
What is a Photograph
3. History Of The First Camera
After a lithography craze swept France in 1813, Nicéphore
Niépce began experimenting with lithographic printmaking he
took paper, varnished them to make them translucent, placed
them on metal plates coated with various light-sensitive
solutions that he made himself, and exposed them to
sunlight, a process he termed “Heliography” which means
“sun writing”. He then acid-etched the plates, cleaned them
and used them to make final prints on paper.
During these lithography trials, he also experimented by
putting light-sensitive plates at the back of a camera which
was the first ever camera named the “camera obscura”.
4. The First Photograph
Artists wanted to capture a still image
for a long time and they have been
trying to experiment with light and
when they were trying the first ever
test succeed and that became the
first ever photograph.
5. Henry talbot was the inventor of process of negative
photography from this photograph multiple copies
were made. This requires a lot of other processes to
make
The Process
• The paper is sensitized to light with silver salt
solutions
• Then exposed the paper to light, the POI of the
photo is turned into many shades of gray and then
the background of the photo becomes black
• To make it positive Talbot made multiple contact
prints from the piece of paper, reversed the light
and shadows and made it the so that the photo is a
positive.
6. The exposure time of cameras has decreased because of the
development over the years
As they have developed, exposure time has decreased so
photos are much more clear and have less noise and are
much more pleasing to look at
Exposure
7. Daguerreotypes
This photograph was taken in Paris the place in which
the photo masterpiece was taken in boulevard du
temple
This photograph masterpiece was the first
photo of a “Human”
8. Modern Photography
In the year 1829, the making of modern photography came to
life Louis Daguerre had a partner named Joseph Niepce.
The silver was polished, which after was were the images
were mounted on, they were then coated with ioaine, which
was crafted on a surface of sensitive to light.
The plate is placed in the camera and exposed to light for a
couple of minutes it would reflect the image into the surface.
Then Daguerre place the plate in silver chloride
9. Set Of Negatives
Negative slides allowed users/consumers to take and store
multiple photographs on the “Reel” of negative material,
which would then be chemically processed to produce a
positive photo. But before negatives could only take one
photo as it would be saved onto the light sensitive material
whereas with negative you had multiple takes.
10. 1963
In 1963 the Point and Shoot Camera was announced by this
would a huge step for photography as this would lead the
next generation of photographers.
12. What is Surreal Photography
Surreal photography is more about making the world or an
image which goes beyond the physical world of imagination as
we know it. Most of the time surreal photos are something
which would be impossible in real life or tampers with the line
defining what is real and what is imaginary Surreal Meaning
beyond the real world.
14. What is Pop Art Photography
Pop art movement started in the mid-1950s in the United
Kingdom and then followed in the late-1950s in the United
States Pop art was created to challenge the traditional fine art
16. What is Abstract Photography
Abstract Photography uses a visual language to make a color,
line and shapes its not always clear and also it come in
different textures, patterns, blur and expression
18. What Is Minimalist Photography
The term Minimalist is also minimal it supposed to
be as little as possible to display only a few
conventions it started in the early-1960s as the new
and the old photographers moved towards
geometric and abstraction.
