American Photography (Part 1)

              The video taught us about how photography has changed and, effected our lives. Photography started off as paintings that people drew, and there wernt any pictures in newspaper. As time went on people invented better stuff, when cameras first came out not man people owned them because they were pretty expensive. When they came out with the brownie more people started becoming photographers because they weren't as expensive. At first when people toke photographs they would either put vasaline on the lense or,  scratch the negative to add effects to the photo to make it more interesting to the human eye.
            Photography changed when that one guy(forgot his name) started taking straight photographs and not messing with the negatives or the lense. This new era was called straight photography. They toke the pictures so it would look different then it actually was. Babe ruth was the first person to start advertising in photographs. He made $50,000 from baseball but millions from advertising. One thing about the video was how gruesome the photos were about the war. I dont have a question.
