A Moment in Photographic History:
The French artist and chemist Louis-Jacques-Mandé Daguerre died July 10, 1851. Daguerre was recognized for his invention of the daguerreotype process. Before dipping into daguerreotyping, he apprenticed in architecture, theatre design, and panoramic painting. Daguerre also invented the Diorama, which opened in Paris in July 1822.
A Photographic Quote of Note:
The absolute worst thing a person can say about your pictures is, ‘”That’s nice.” It’s the kiss of death.
