Humans have been obsessed with cameras since their inception in the 19th century. Even though we had mirrors to check out ourselves and talented artists who could draw live portraits, we weren’t really happy with the outcome. Then, one Frenchman named Joseph Nicéphore Niépce invented the 1st ever-photographic camera, and we haven’t looked back since then.
Today, with everyone having smartphones in their hands, taking photos has become easier than ever. Globally, we capture an average of 5 billion photos daily, or about 60000 photos in a second. On 29 June every year, India celebrates National Camera Day, a celebration of the art, science, and joy of photography.
What to do on National Camera Day!
The day has arrived on Saturday, and you can take time to celebrate it by taking photos, be it going out or staying indoors. The monsoon is at its peak in India, and one can get a ‘shot of a lifetime.’ However, instead of clicking photos, one can do other activities too that can add value to your life.
- Take time out and attend photography workshops to hone your skills.
- If you’re good at photography, teach someone to click Instagram-worthy shots.
- Clean your camera and try to explore the unexplored features of the camera.
- Try your hands at different styles of photography.
- Sit on your couch and read/watch about how the photography process works.
And with that, it’s time to see the latest launches of the camera world.
