History

Since I have taken history and music classes, I was aware of many of the inventions in the past centuries that have forever changed our world today.  However, I was never to see examples of the steps of developing photographs at the beginning.  In 1877, Eadweard Muybridge was able to develop a camera to change the shutter speed to catch images in motion.  This has forever changed the future of photography.  These brilliant photographers created some of the techniques we still use today.  Yet, times have changed as has the technology developed.

It is much more common to use a digital camera nowadays, rather than manually using a camera that the pictures need to be developed. This is only recent. It is amazing how technology has changed drastically over the past century, and even decade.  Now, people are able to carry a Flip video camera's in their pocket's and record on the spot.  Youtube has grown exponentially with videos from ordinary people because they are able to capture instances that never could have been captured before.  From pictures to videos to movies, the history and future of America will never be the same
