Past Month Overview

Hi, sorry I didn't update earlier, I have been very busy with schoolwork. However, I still did research on the History of Photography.

I wanted to give an overview of what I've completed this month. As you know, I've been researching both the history of photography and photography techniques so I can eventually capture a photo that shows the history of photography, however I've completed my research on photography techniques. Here is what I have done this week.

I have continued my research on the History of Photography, learning about the Dry Plate Process (1878), the first Kodak Camera (1888), the Kodak 'Brownie' Camera (1900) and Autochrome plates (1906).

Whilst doing my research, I came up with the idea of writing up an essay for each significant point in the history of photography where I could talk about things such as how important it was and the impacts on the community. I will only use some of the points in the history of photography as some are less important than others. Writing these essays will help me to come up with ideas for a photo to represent each development in photography.

I am looking forward to try out more of the photography techniques that I have researched. I will post some pictures that I have taken, using the techniques I have researched, on a page on this blog which will be called 'Photo Gallery'. Also, I have created two new pages on my blog. One will be called, 'Deeper meaning of photography', the other will be called 'Famous Quotes'. Please have a look at them.

Please leave any comments. Will update on my progress soon.
