Nah, you can see the outline of his back, he's kneeling on a platform, this is technically a picture of two people. His arms are not visble because they were moving, but his back is visible.
Nah, you can see the outline of the shoe shiners back and the back of his head/neck. You can't see his hands or a lot of his head, because they were moving. This is technically a picture of two people.
yes! the camera is called a "daguerreotype" and was the first widely publicly available photographing technique. it has a high picture quality because it used silver plated copper sheets that were polished to a mirror surface. think of it like taking a picture using a mirror. since light itself has no resolution, the image quality is only limited by the quality of materials, exposure time and plate size. at least, this is my understanding of it. i have not been in a photography class for many years 😅
This is actually amazing. I saw a documentary of someone taking a photo of the highway and why can't it capture moving objects. I couldn't believe I would live long enough to see the evolution of the camera, cameras were so massive before and can't even take pictures properly, and now we have everything in our phone.
That guy be like: I'm paying you extra to make it shinier so take your time. Also, have you heard about that mad scientist who's working on his new 'camera' stuff?
The oldest known photograph of a person was taken by Louis Daguerre in 1838. It is a daguerreotype image of a street in Paris, France, and a man getting his shoes shined can be seen in the lower left corner of the photo. However, since the exposure time for the photograph was several minutes, the man getting his shoes shined was the only person who stood still long enough to be captured in the image. Therefore, he is considered to be the first person to be photographed, but not necessarily the first human to be photographed.
Meanwhile the guy who polished this gentleman's shoes: If only I hadn't moved too fast doing my job, I would have been the second man to be in a photo.
I remember learning about this in a photography class in high school, that was prob one of my favorite classes lol. They’d give passes to walk around and take pictures around the school and it was that teachers last year so she wasn’t really keeping track of how long people went out for even though you were only able to go out for 30 minutes technically. Occasionally some of my friends would skip and I’d give them the pass and I’d carry the camera so they could walk around freely too, instead of hanging out in the bathroom or some shit lmao.
Truly fascinating. I love history, so interesting to learn about. And stuff like this is kinda haunting. Watching a documentary about ww1 in school with real ww1 footage made me for the first time in my life think "Every single one of these people are dead". Seeing videos from back then is truly haunting
as an introvert, i couldn't imagine just standing and looking at my shoeshiner for 10 minutes. i would pray to god every second that he doesn't start a small talk with me😂
I remember when we made cameras out of Quaker oats cans in middle school art class. It took about 10 mins to record the pic, and you could make yourself look like a ghost by waiting 5 mins before entering the picture.
