Before school ended, we had to think about what careers really interested us and I chose photography! I grew up watching my dad take pictures of bugs (he likes to get really close up!) and I wanted to try, too!
He gave me one of his old cameras and I'm going to start posting some pictures online, too! Right now, I've just been practicing with stuff in the backyard or a nearby park, but it's so much fun!
Did you know that some of the concepts that led to the first camera are more than 2000 years old?
An ancient scientist noticed that light passing through a small hole into a dark room showed an upside-down image on the wall. That led to the first "pinhole camera".
