Uncover the story of the invention and history of photography.
Uncover the story of the invention of photography and the way in which it became an integral part of the modern world, including the remarkable achievements of the pioneer photographers, the revolution that took place when George Eastman made photography available to the masses with the invention of the Kodak brand.
“Being in the right place at the right time”, “the decisive moment”, “getting in close” – in the popular imagination this is photography at its best, a medium that makes us eyewitnesses to the moments when history is made.

Pretty darn cool. I have to admit that I never was too impressed by photography as an art form: if I had to choose between a painting and a photograph to decorate my bedroom, I’d choose the painting ten times out of ten. But, now I’m starting to really come around. Thanks for this one. This is a cool one about war photography: http://www.documentary-log.com/you-are-watching-war-photographer/ and the power that it had in making people start to KIND of understand war – or, at least see its brutality.
