Continuing history of technology

We looked at a male photographer called Prokudin-Gorskii. He was from Russia and lived during 1853-1944. What we find odd about his photographs is that they are of such a high quality for a photo from such a long time ago. It makes you then realise that the world was never as dull and old looking as we tend to think.

There was also an early version of the cinema, which required alot of light to produce it, and the outcome were thirty second clips of events that were filmed.
