The World's 20 First Photos in the History of Photography



The world of photography has been known since the invention of the camera in the early 1800's. The use of cameras has enabled humans to capture various historical moments around us since ancient times.
Now, as technology develops, cameras are created to be more sophisticated and practical. With that convenience, of course, taking pictures can be done anytime, anywhere, with an unlimited number of times. Especially with the presence of social media, it's easier to share moments with others.


But do you know how the first photo was taken? So, as reported by PetaPixel, here are the first 20 photos in the history of world photography.
1. First Photo

The world's first photo was taken in 1826 by Joseph Nicéphore Niépce, the inventor and pioneer of the world of photography. This photo was taken from the window of Upstairs Arief in the Burgundy region of France. This image was taken through a process known as heliography.
2. First Color Photo
This is the first color photo taken by the mathematical physicist, James Clerk Maxwell with Thomas Sutton the SLR inventor who served as a shutter button press in 1861. This portrait is an arc of three colors.
3. First Cape Canaveral Launch Photo
NASA photographers took the first photos of the Cape Canaveral launch in July 1950. The rocket that was launched was known as 'Bumper 2', a two-stage rocket consisting of a V-2 missile and a Corporal WAC rocket.

This first digital photo was in 1957, 20 years before Kodak engineers invented the first digital camera. This image is a child portrait of Russell Kirsch which has a resolution of 176 by 176.
#5. First human photography

It was very difficult to photograph moving humans with old cameras. However, Louis Daguerre managed to photograph the first human on the streets of Boulevard du Temple, Paris, France.

Finally he managed to photograph a standing man who was polishing shoes.

Currently, photos from a height are becoming a trend, especially with the advent of drone cameras . As it turns out, the world's first aerial photography was not taken by drone, you know, but by hot air balloon in 1860. This portrait depicts the city of Boston from a height of 2,000 feet by James Wallace Black entitled â??Boston, as the Eagle and the Wild Goose See Itâ? .
