World Photography Day

Celebrate World Photography Day with BananaBandy by viewing the best pictures on the Site.

Today, we can share images across the globe in seconds. Photography has revolutionized the way we see the world.

We can visit places without leaving our homes, share adventures with friends in other nations and watch grandchildren grow up thousands of kilometers away. There was a time when photography didn’t exist, when there was no way for one to know how other places and people looked like aside from travelling there or looking at sketches and paintings, when there was no way to capture a moment in time and freeze it forever and when there was no way for one to showcase the duckface in a selfie!

All this is possible only because of the invention of the camera. Today, is the day that we celebrate the invention of the camera and the tremendous impact this scientific invention that captures light has had on mankind.

The date behind World Photography Day originates from the invention of the Daguerreotype, a photographic processes developed by Joseph Nièpce and Louis Daguerre in 1837. On August 19, 1839, the French government purchased the patent and announced the invention as a gift “Free to the World” and this is why we celebrate the 19th of August as World Photography Day!
