Great video, very interesting.
Thanks so much. Tez
Primae autophotographiae inventum.
Tez!!! So, I watched your celebration video the other day-- One Year Anniversary! And announcing 50K subscribers! That's incredible! And as I watch this today, you're at 53.9K! Another 3K bump from the other day. You're out of control, my man! (In a good way-- don't "reign it in"!) You're storming this beast, quietly and with understated stealth-- quite the gob-smacking, though. Well done! Helps that you're comfortable in front of the camera (well, very nearly comfortable!) Hah! I'm thrilled for your unprecedented success, keep taming the YT beast with your style and excellent groundwork. Love ya, man!
What an amazing comment to wake up to!!!! If this doesn’t put a spring into my step today then nothing will. Thank you very very much, Tez 😊
Great channel!
Thanks very much. Tez
I'm weeks late in watching this, but it was absolutely fascinating. Great job as usual, Terry.
Thank you so much John. Tez
10:51 Also look up Sergey P. Gorsky, he was a Imperial Russian chemist that built a special projector to show his photos that were shot in the same fashion.
It was still used in the 90s with monochrome webcameras or just plain b&w film cameras, using rgb filters you'd get colour composite photograph.
Here in the Puget Sound area of Washington State we have an Interstate Highway project that just wrapped up after 22 years... It's like the opposite of these wonderous stories, where somebody could have started as a young engineer on the project and spent their entire career on it, haha.
This was just amazing!
Great content and well presented.
I look forward to all of your productions.
Many thanks 😊
Thanks so much Paul, Tez 😊
It's always great to watch Terry and Very Nearly Interesting for sure, A bright spot on CZcams.
Thanks so much Philip, what a kind thing to say 😊
Hmmmmhh.... That's good
Wow, great video Tez. Thanks
Glad you enjoyed it!! Thanks as always OTRA, Tez
You made this so interesting that im notbinto this but i watched the whole thing and liked it.
Oh thank you!! 😊
Cheers Tez! Great video, as always. In watching it, especially the recap, I was reminded of a video idea from my original viewing. There are MANY strange happenings surrounding Edison, that always wound up benefiting him; deaths, lost or destroyed property, campaigns to smear a competitor... Might be very nearly interesting!!
By the way, I was thinking you might need to pop over to the states for research. You could fly into DFW and I can take you down to Austin to see the plate of view from the window at le gras!! Sounds like great fun!
Hi Carl! Thanks so much for your lovely message - definitely visiting the worlds first photo in Austin needs to go on my bucket list. Maybe I should do an Edison video … I’ll have a think about that. Thanks again for your comment and see you soon, Tez
what about the shroud of Turin? That's a photo negative - maybe produced by da Vinci.
its fake
Good old Hunslet x
Camera Obscura was already in use around 470BC in China, though not by that name, according to Wikipedia! The whole subject is really very interesting. Thank you for the journey to the past.
🤗wickedpedia🤗
Excellent -- thank you!
Hey Terry. 📸🎬📽
Hi Perry!!!!!! How nice to see you!!!! Tez 😊
Hi! We now know he's Terry!
Absolutely fascinating and not nearly but very interesting!!!! The photograph of the Duke of Wellington from 1844 is well worth a look, I would argue the most famous person from history to be first photographed.
I will have a look!!! Thanks so much for your comment Keith. Tez
Great video, very interesting. I'm just wondering why you missed out Henry Fox Talbot, is it because he didn't improve much in the scale of things?
If I am being perfectly honest I don’t know much about him … I will Google him and have a read. Thanks for your comment, much appreciated, Tez.
Surprisingly, there’s no mention of Fox Talbot
I need to learn more about him … he’s just not been on my radar if I’m honest. Thanks so much for your comment, Tez
Just saw this very interesting video three months after it was released. My question is when did people start doing death photography. Mostly children( that I’ve seen). I understand photography was very expensive, and usually this was the only photo families had of their children.
It’s not something I’ve looked into in great detail but my understanding is that death photography was popular way before the ‘Daguerrotype’ because long exposure times weren’t a problem. I’m pleased you enjoyed the video Lynn. Tez
Im from Harrogate😂
Why is everything so sketchy that has something to do with Thomas Edison.
