From the 1850s onwards, Queen Victoria and Prince Albert commissioned work from a number of photographers. These included Roger Fenton who photographed the royal family, Windsor Castle and the Crimean War, and J.J.E. Mayall, whose 1860 portraits of the Queen and Prince Albert became the first photographs of the royal family to be published and made available for sale to the general public. The work of many other photographers, such as Julia Margaret Cameron, Oscar Rejlander, Francis Bedford and Gustave Le Gray, was also collected.Niépce died in 1833 and Daguerre then redirected the experiments toward the light-sensitive silver halides, which Niépce had abandoned many years earlier because of his inability to make the images he captured with them light-fast and permanent. Daguerre's efforts culminated in what would later be named the daguerreotype process. The essential elements—a silver-plated surface sensitized by iodine vapor, developed by mercury vapor, and "fixed" with hot saturated salt water—were in place in 1837. The required exposure time was measured in minutes instead of hours. Daguerre took the earliest confirmed photograph of a person in 1838 while capturing a view of a Paris street: unlike the other pedestrian and horse-drawn traffic on the busy boulevard, which appears deserted, one man having his boots polished stood sufficiently still throughout the several-minutes-long exposure to be visible. The existence of Daguerre's process was publicly announced, without details, on 7 January 1839. The news created an international sensation. France soon agreed to pay Daguerre a pension in exchange for the right to present his invention to the world as the gift of France, which occurred when complete working instructions were unveiled on 19 August 1839. In that same year, American photographer Robert Cornelius is credited with taking the earliest surviving photographic self-portrait. a b "1861: James Clerk Maxwell's greatest year".

Leonardo da Vinci mentions natural camerae obscurae that are formed by dark caves on the edge of a sunlit valley. A hole in the cave wall will act as a pinhole camera and project a laterally reversed, upside down image on a piece of paper. Renaissance painters used the camera obscura which, in fact, gives the optical rendering in color that dominates Western Art. It is a box with a small hole in one side, which allows specific light rays to enter, projecting an inverted image onto a viewing screen or paper. Cordier, Pierre (1982).

Papers of the Research and Experiments Department containing observations of and research into allied and enemy bombs, bombing methods and effects, fire prevention and air raid damage both in the United Kingdom and in enemy occupied territories. Many are technical reports and surveys of air raid damage to towns, buildings and transport facilities, with photographs as supporting evidence. This is another way to use our catalogue. A large number of photographs are only identified in the record series descriptions of our catalogue.Each record series has its own ‘series search’. There are hundreds of series that contain photographs, many of them listed in Appendix 1of this guide and in sections 4 to 13, where the same series are organised by theme. Once you have established that a series contains photographs you can use the series search, and the keyword tips in section 3.2, to try finding them. However, in some cases searches may have to be much more speculative as some series do not contain descriptions ofindividual photographs. You will need to look through the original documents within the series to discover where the photographs are located. 3.4 Incomplete paper index for places and people If you don’t find what you are looking for, you can search the full collection in our catalogue(see 3.2). 3.2 Use our catalogue to search the whole collection by keywords In the Photos app’s OneDrive tab, you'll see your personal albums and features such as OneDrive memories. OneDrive memories are automatically generated by OneDrive, not the Photos app. You can view memories and albums by selecting them in the Photos app, which takes you to their location on your OneDrive synced on the web. Several people may have coined the same new term from these roots independently. Hércules Florence, a French painter and inventor living in Campinas, Brazil, used the French form of the word, photographie, in private notes which a Brazilian historian believes were written in 1834. [5] This claim is widely reported but is not yet largely recognized internationally. The first use of the word by Florence became widely known after the research of Boris Kossoy in 1980.

Similarly, there are 33 photograph albums recording Queen Mary’s family life, travels and official visits, assembled and captioned by her between 1880 and 1952. Albums presented to King George V recorded a brave new world of modern exploration as well as the horror of the First World War. War Crimes Case Files from the Judge Advocate General’s Office consisting of daily transcripts of proceedings, prosecution and defence summations. Most files have photographs, most often of the defendant, but some also depict the scene of the crime – they were used as exhibits. Agfa's similarly structured Agfacolor Neu was introduced in 1936. Unlike Kodachrome, the color couplers in Agfacolor Neu were incorporated into the emulsion layers during manufacture, which greatly simplified the processing. Currently, available color films still employ a multi-layer emulsion and the same principles, most closely resembling Agfa's product.
