Photography derives from the Greek words for "light" and "to write" and the word was coined by Sir John Herschel in 1839. Early philosophers and mathematicians described the principles of the pinhole camera as early as the 5th century BC, though the first photographs were not made until combining several technical discoveries. Cameras are now widely used around the world to capture wonderful sights and are symbols of both paparazzi and human freedom and ingenuity.

The history of photography
Photography originated from the Greek words for "light" and "to draw." The earliest known photograph was made in 1825 by Nicéphore Niépce using a process called heliography. The camera obscura, which projected images through a pinhole or lens onto a surface, was used as early as ancient times but was first described in detail in the 15th century by Leonardo Da Vinci. Lenses eventually replaced pinholes, improving image quality. Modern cameras developed from the camera obscura, becoming the primary tool for photography until digital cameras replaced chemical film. While some still prefer darkrooms, photography is now dominated by digital methods.
History of Photography
Photography evolved over centuries from early concepts of the camera obscura and pinhole cameras to the first permanent photograph in 1826. Key developments included Daguerre's daguerreotype process in 1839, Talbot's calotype process producing negatives, and the widespread adoption of photography following its introduction to the United States in the 1840s. Advances like the tintype and gelatin dry plates improved accessibility and allowed photographs to document events like the Civil War. The introduction of portable cameras like the Kodak in the late 1800s enabled photography to become a popular hobby and art form.
Principles of the Camera Obscura
Mark W. Decker enjoys learning about the history of photography and has become familiar with the camera obscura, one of the earliest image capture tools. The camera obscura has its origins in ancient times when Chinese philosopher Mo-Ti described the formation of an inverted image via light passing through a pinhole opening in a darkened room. Later, Aristotle and Islamic scholar Alhazen experimented with the same concept using light from lanterns. The inverted image forms because light rays cross when passing through a small opening, causing an upside-down version of the scene to appear on the opposite wall.

Enlightenment Science
The Enlightenment period in Europe from 1600-1700 saw a restoration of education and knowledge. This period is also known as the Age of Reason. Key developments that contributed to the Age of Reason included increased trade, knowledge from other parts of the world, and the invention of the printing press which allowed spread of information. Major cities grew substantially in size during this time, with London and Paris having over 100,000 residents each. The growing middle class including merchants and artisans also helped drive new thinking. Scientists like Copernicus, Galileo and Newton helped overturn the old Ptolemaic geocentric view of the universe, establishing instead evidence for a heliocentric solar system through observations and scientific theories.
HISTORICAL DEVELOPMENT OF GEOGRAPHY
The document traces the historical development of geography from ancient Greek contributions to its emergence as a modern academic discipline. It discusses the early concepts of geography put forth by Greek philosophers like Thales of Miletus and Eratosthenes. Roman geographers like Ptolemy and Strabo further expanded on these ideas. During the Middle Ages, Muslim geographers maintained and advanced Greco-Roman techniques. In the 18th century, geography became a recognized field of study in European universities. Two opposing views then emerged - environmental determinism, which believes the environment controls human activities, and possibilism, which emphasizes human agency to adapt to their surroundings. Modern geography integrates these perspectives through cultural ecology and regional studies approaches.
telescope_genesis_en.ppt
The telescope was invented in the early 17th century, first by Hans Lippershey and later improved by Galileo Galilei, who used it to make groundbreaking observations of the moon, Jupiter's moons, and sunspots. Early telescopic observations revealed that the celestial bodies were not perfect spheres as previously thought, sparking a scientific revolution and overturning Aristotelian physics and astronomy.
Timeline of photography
Photography has evolved significantly since its invention in the early 19th century. Early methods like the daguerreotype required exposures of up to 8 hours, but advances like the use of film by George Eastman and 35mm cameras made photography faster and more accessible.

The Influence Of Photography On American Culture
Art is not to be found by touring to Egypt, China, or Peru; if you cannot find it at your own door, you will never find it. Ralph Waldo Emerson . Although many might think that it is a waste of time and money, photography is a great hobby that people should try. However, even if someone has different opinions, they must consider that photography is steadily on its way to becoming a worldwide everyday use, and is already part of the American culture. Who has contributed to the making of the modern camera in earlier times? In ancient times, at approximately 5th century B.C., the beginning of the camera was the use of a camera obscura, Greek meaning Dark room. A camera obscura is a dark room that has a small hole in a wall or other...show more content...However, in 1727, a professor by the name of J. Schulze made the first known photosensitive compound . J. Schulze mixed chalk, nitric acid, and silver in a flask, and then noticed how the mixture darkened on the side exposed to the most light, accidentally creating the first photographic compound. Later, in 1800, Thomas Wedgewood made what he called sun pictures by placing objects on a piece of leather treated with silver nitrate, which were the first photographs, although they faded and deteriorated if exposed to much light. In 1816, Nicéphore Niépce combined the photosensitive paper with the camera obscura, which after multiple tries and multiple years, created a permanent image on the paper. In 1834, Henry Fox Talbot created a permanent image using paper soaked in silver chloride and fixed with a salt solution, which was an image negative. Talbot could make a positive image by con
Space
The document discusses several topics related to astronomy and space, including:
- The formation of elements like hydrogen in the Big Bang and later fusion in stars that led to heavier elements like carbon.
- How satellites orbit Earth due to centripetal force balancing gravitational attraction, with examples of low polar orbits and geostationary orbits.
- How planets orbit the Sun due to centripetal force balancing gravitational attraction.
- How the Sun will evolve over time from its current stable phase into a red giant and later a white dwarf or neutron star/black hole.
Radiation
In alpha decay, the nucleus loses 2 protons and 2 neutrons, decreasing the atomic number by 2 and mass number by 4. In beta decay, a neutron changes to a proton and an electron is ejected, increasing the atomic number by 1 while keeping the mass number the same. In gamma decay, only energy is emitted with no change to the atomic or mass number.

However, even if someone has different opinions, they must consider that photography is steadily on its way to becoming a worldwide everyday use, and is already part of the American culture. Who has contributed to the making of the modern camera in earlier times? In ancient times, at approximately 5th century B.C., the beginning of the camera was the use of a camera obscura, Greek meaning Dark room. A camera obscura is a dark room that has a small hole in a wall or other...show more content...However, in 1727, a professor by the name of J. Schulze made the first known photosensitive compound . J. Schulze mixed chalk, nitric acid, and silver in a flask, and then noticed how the mixture darkened on the side exposed to the most light, accidentally creating the first photographic compound. Later, in 1800, Thomas Wedgewood made what he called sun pictures by placing objects on a piece of leather treated with silver nitrate, which were the first photographs, although they faded and deteriorated if exposed to much light. In 1816, Nicéphore Niépce combined the photosensitive paper with the camera obscura, which after multiple tries and multiple years, created a permanent image on the paper. In 1834, Henry Fox Talbot created a permanent image using paper soaked in silver chloride and fixed with a salt solution, which was an image negative. Talbot could make a positive image by con

Space
The document discusses several topics related to astronomy and space, including:
- The formation of elements like hydrogen in the Big Bang and later fusion in stars that led to heavier elements like carbon.
- How satellites orbit Earth due to centripetal force balancing gravitational attraction, with examples of low polar orbits and geostationary orbits.
- How planets orbit the Sun due to centripetal force balancing gravitational attraction.
- How the Sun will evolve over time from its current stable phase into a red giant and later a white dwarf or neutron star/black hole.
Radiation
In alpha decay, the nucleus loses 2 protons and 2 neutrons, decreasing the atomic number by 2 and mass number by 4. In beta decay, a neutron changes to a proton and an electron is ejected, increasing the atomic number by 1 while keeping the mass number the same. In gamma decay, only energy is emitted with no change to the atomic or mass number.
Motion
Forces add up as vectors, so a 10N force to the left and an 8N force to the right result in a 2N force to the left. If the net force is zero, the object will stay at rest or move at a constant velocity. If there is a net force, the object will accelerate according to F=ma. Projectiles follow parabolic paths and take the same time to fall as dropped objects. Kinetic energy equals half the mass times the velocity squared.
Light
The document summarizes key aspects of different parts of the electromagnetic spectrum including radio waves, microwaves, infrared, visible light, ultraviolet, x-rays, and gamma rays. It also discusses properties that apply across the spectrum such as all waves traveling at the speed of light, interference and diffraction effects. Additionally, it covers topics in waves and optics including reflection, refraction, lenses, sound waves, and seismic waves.
Energy
Heat is transferred through particles vibrating (conduction), air rising when hot (convection), and radiation being absorbed and reflected. Insulation in walls traps air which is an insulator, while different methods like passive solar heating and fossil fuels generate heat energy through various processes. When a solid melts it changes state at a constant temperature.
Electomagnets
1) When a current passes through a copper wire in a magnetic field, it induces a voltage in the wire due to electromagnetic induction.
2) An alternating current generator uses a rotating coil in a magnetic field to generate a current, where the direction of the current reverses as the coil rotates.
3) Transformers use the principle of electromagnetic induction to change the voltage of an alternating current - a step-up transformer increases voltage through more turns on the secondary coil, while a step-down transformer decreases voltage.
Electronics
1) Electrostatic charges involve the attraction and repulsion of objects based on whether they have equal or opposite charges. Charges are used in photocopiers, dust precipitators, and defibrillators.
2) Electricity involves the flow of electrons through conductors. The resistance of materials can change based on factors like temperature. Common circuit components include resistors, diodes, and capacitors.
3) Digital and analog signals are used to transmit information. Digital signals use 1s and 0s while analog signals have continuously varying values. Multiplexing and sampling allow more data to be transmitted.

The document defines key terms related to food chains and food webs, including biomass, producer, consumer, herbivore, carnivore, predator, prey, decomposer. It provides an example food chain starting with plants as producers, then herbivores, primary and secondary consumers, and ending with a carnivore or tertiary consumer at the top. A diagram shows how energy transfers through a pyramid-shaped food web from producers to different consumer levels.
Food chain.ppt amit and mary
A food chain shows that plants are eaten by herbivores like rabbits, which are then eaten by carnivores like lions. Producers like plants make their own food and are the first link in the food chain, while consumers eat other organisms. Herbivores eat plants, carnivores eat meat, predators eat other animals, and prey are eaten by predators. Decomposers break down dead organisms. Humans, eagles and lions are at the top of food pyramids as they are rarely preyed upon by other animals.

Hello im sirsak and im neeth ^ ^
The document discusses key concepts related to food chains and biomass. It defines biomass as the total mass of a living thing excluding water. Biomass is composed of glucose and other substances produced through photosynthesis. A food chain diagrams how organisms feed on each other in an ecosystem, with producers like plants generating their own food, and consumers like herbivores and carnivores eating other organisms or animals. Decomposers feed on dead plants and animals. An example food chain is given of grass being eaten by a grasshopper and further up the chain.
Food chains
A food chain shows how each living thing gets its food, with arrows indicating what eats what. Carnivores are meat-eating animals like cats, lions, and snakes. Producers like plants make their own food through photosynthesis. Consumers eat other organisms, and can be herbivores that eat plants or predators that hunt other animals. Prey are the animals or plants that are hunted by predators.

Food chain with alice
The document describes various food chains that exist on Earth and a hypothetical food chain on Mars. On Earth, producers like plants undergo photosynthesis at the bottom of the food chain, while consumers like herbivores and carnivores eat other organisms or animals higher up the chain. A food chain in the ocean includes phytoplankton, zooplankton, fish, and blue whales. The hypothetical Martian food chain positions Mares bacteria at the bottom, which are eaten by Mares aliens that feed on rocks. These aliens are preyed upon by the apex predator Sky beasts.
Sunni and nish foód¦¬presentaion
Biomass refers to the total mass of living organisms in an ecosystem, excluding water. Producers in a food chain are always plants, which produce their own food through photosynthesis. A food chain represents the predator-prey relationships between species in an ecosystem, with producers like plants being eaten by consumers such as snails, fish and ducks, and with carnivores preying on other animals and serving as predators for their prey.
Unit 2 8 Alcohols And Halogenoalkanes Notes

4.
Unit 2 9 Mechanisms Notes
This document provides an overview of organic reaction mechanisms. It begins by explaining that chemical reactions can be studied in detail by examining how electrons move during the reaction, known as the reaction mechanism. It then discusses different types of organic reactions like addition, elimination, and substitution. The document also categorizes reagents as nucleophiles or electrophiles. It explains how single bonds can break through homolytic or heterolytic fission. Finally, it discusses free radical chemistry and how CFCs catalyze the destruction of stratospheric ozone through a free radical chain reaction.
Solar Elyse And Jeong
The document discusses solar energy, including what it is, how it is harnessed, where it comes from, its advantages and disadvantages, and some of its uses. Solar energy comes from the sun and can be used to generate electricity or heat water. It is harnessed using solar panels that convert sunlight into electrical energy or use it to heat fluids. While a renewable source of energy, solar power has initial costs and requires large land areas for panels, and production of panels can release toxic byproducts if not properly handled.
Future Transport Nishan And Sunny
Alternative fuels are fuels other than conventional fossil fuels like oil, coal, and natural gas. Some common alternative fuels include biodiesel, ethanol, hydrogen, and electricity from batteries, fuel cells, solar, or wind power. Alternative fuels are needed because fossil fuel resources are running out and renewable alternatives are needed. Battery electric vehicles use electric motors powered by rechargeable battery packs instead of gasoline engines. They have less pollution than gas cars but slower charging times and speeds. Solar cars are powered by solar panels that convert sunlight directly into electrical energy for electric motors. They produce zero emissions but are expensive and can only be used during the day. Fuel cells produce electricity through chemical reactions without combustion, which can be used to power electric
Nuclear And Geothermal Neeth And Sirsak
Nuclear energy generates electricity by splitting or fusing atomic nuclei, releasing energy according to Einstein's mass-energy equivalence formula. Geothermal energy taps heat from the earth's core to generate electricity. Both use heat to generate electricity, with nuclear providing low-cost, low-pollution power. France generates over 75% of its electricity from nuclear energy due to energy security policies. Geothermal energy is also used for district heating and bathing.

How to Make a Field Mandatory in Odoo 17
In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.
