photography as been seen as a brilliant art form since cameras were introduced one hundred years. People have, for years, wanted to be able to keep images in a place were it could be preserved and admired for a long time. A predecessor for this was painting. Painting, before cameras was a thing in the modern century, is capturing images based on what the painter want to interpret. But this look a lot of skill and time to accurately get a portrait of a person.

During the early 19th century, the idea of creating a camera was born. An inventor began to develop the technology needed for starting the process of photography. These advancements eventually leads to panoramic photography. Panoramic photographers eventually emerge due to how popular the style is within the community of photographers that want to capture photos in such a style.

The early days of picture taking began on 1890s. It began with a prototype camera and the way photos were developed was not using films, not began on glass plates. These were sturdy things that images were placed on and used light to print the images on glass plates as film was not invented or introduced during the time period yet and when it was first introduced, it was quite expensive.

When the film was released, not many professionals like it. This was because of cost for getting it and how quickly it was used up. Although it was perfect for amateurs to use and it became popular because of that. It science, the glass plates had many different applications and was used for various things as well. One these was holography and that was a method that has endured well enough into 2010s.

Finally the film became the dominant mode of photography during its inception until the 21st century. Although in modern times, the art is dominated by digital phones and cameras, film is still used by lovers of old school ways and professionals as well. The look that is given by film is quite appealing compared to digital counterparts. The atmosphere and sensitivity that is given gives it an value that people are nostalgic for.

Its first incarnation had only monochrome as a color scheme. Monochrome means black and white, and for the most part, pictures had no color. Incorporating colors into photos eventually became possible but monochrome style did not die out. In fact, it has gained a wide amount of popularity among many professionals due to how good and classic the black and white style looks to these guys.

Colors took a few tries to create. Glass plates could not fully get colors because they could not hold them and the color would eventually fade in the light. Since the pictures takes hours and upon hours to develop, colors would not stick and fade once flight was shown on it. The first time a picture with colors was taken was 1861 according to history and became a game changer in photography forever.

A big event came during 1981, as the first digital camera for consumer use was released as a charge coupled device for imaging that now eliminated the use of films. Since films was expandable and expensive to buy, digital ones became the most plausible option for professionals and also the quality was much higher. Digital style continues to dominate until this day that more than ninety nine percent of pictures are digitally taken.

The field has had a lot of contributions to many different places. The field of sciences uses this to take a better look at how the human body is constructed and how to find tumors or many swelling inside the body. It also contribution in the creating the movie industry or as the old days call it, moving pictures.
