The earliest photographic image was produced in 1826 by a French inventor, Nicphore Nipce. He produced the image by capturing them on a pewter plate which as covered in petroleum. It was then covered in bitumen which hardens when exposed to the light the material which is still soft can be easily washed away. The metal was then polished to produce a stamp and then ink was applied and the impression was placed onto a piece of paper.
The inventor then continued to experiment and over the years produced many different types of photography plates. All of them worked and was the origin of the amazing photography we have today. Over the years the improvements in photography were amazing and the technology advanced greatly.
Although colour photography was slower to come and different techniques were explored through the 19th century. Eventually the technology was advanced enough and colour images were available to be seen by people. In 1986 Kodak produced the first mega pixel camera which allowed people to have a clearer picture. These images could then be altered and changed to allow more things to be achieved with the image.
Nowadays, photo gifts can be produced with ease and numerous items can have photos placed on them. You could have your family photos and photos of your favourite areas made into canvas prints,
personalised calendars or even printed on T-Shirts.
