Photography, A new trend but from where it was started Deepak Sharma Jaipur. As, we all see that the most popular trend, adopted by us is photography. Everywhere in our surrounding, we only see, people preparing themselves to be a photogenic face. But, the question arises that at first, who created this idea of photography and images According to history of camera and photography, many names of scientists are there. Actually, it did not happen all of sudden, but most prominent name was George Eastman, who started manufacturing paper film in 1885
before switching to celluloid in year 1888 to 1889. But before these, it was all started at the time of camera obscura. this was the device which used only pinhole or called a lens to project an image
upside down. The image was projected on a paper and it was only a shadow on which we can draw according to the shadow on paper. You will be amazed to know that there was a time where we did not have a method to preserve the images produced by the cameras .
The first camera was invented by Alexander Wolcott. His camera design was patented on 8th May, 1840. At the time of Wolcott, it was possible to capture the image. After ten years Louis Daguerre created practical photographic mechanism known as daguerreotype. By using so many formulas and chemicals the image could know be developing. Kodak was the first product invented by eastman and it was launched again in Market with retina I introducing 135 cartridge
In 1952, we saw first ever Japanese SLR with 35mm film – Asahiflex introduced by Asahi Optical Company. After that so many cameras launched by Japanese company. The world of camera is taking up a very fast growing baby step, so many types of camera were launched successfully. And now one can find these cameras in phones with options of inbuilt GPS system and realtime geotagging options.

Facts about camera

The first digital camera was designed in December, 1975 by Kodak. The camera was designed by the engineer, Steve Sassoon and it weighed 8 pounds and recorded black and white pictures at 0.01 megapixels. Probably not even worth it to retouch a photo taken
of yourself with this camera. The man with the largest collection of cameras is Dilish Parekh from Mumbai. He has a collection of 4,425 antique cameras. He has collected them since 1977, and his oldest camera dates back to 1907. Going to his house must be like entering heaven for photographers, like a kid in a candy store. Modern digital cameras, which are the most common cameras in use today, use an electronic image sensor to capture the image, which is then stored in its memory until it is downloaded to an electronic device like a

computer or printer. The chemicals which is to be used for developing photographs are called photographic fixatives.

Babasaheb: The Father of Indian Constitution India celebrated 126th birth anniversary of the ‘Father of Indian Constitution’, today Lakshika Mathur
Jaipur. Ambedkar Jayanti is celebrated every year on 14th of April like a festival. On this day,
we remember Dr. Bhimrao Ram Ambedkar and his contributions for the people of India. It is the 126th birth anniversary of Dr. Ambedkar. Dr. B.R. Ambedkar is often referred to as the father of the Indian constitution. He is popularly known as Babasaheb. He was India’s first law minister and also the chairman of the Indian constitution drafting committee. One of his major contribution also include protecting the Fundamental Rights and Directive Principles of State Policy of the Indian Constitution. He has been
honored with the Bharat Ratna in April in 1990 for his immense contributions towards the Indian society and its constitution. He worked to eliminate the social belief of untouchability. He protested to uplift the ‘untouchables’ in the society to enhance their social status during law practice in the Bombay High Court.He also protected the Dalit rights by organizing various programs like ‘Mook Nayak, Bahishkrit Bharat and Equality Janta’. He started some active public movements and marches in 1927, against untouchability to
give the Dalit equal rights on water resources as well as to enter Hindu temples. He also opposed the article 370 of India to provide the special status to the people of Jammu and Kashmir. Dr. Ambedkar was a very knowledgeable person. He founded the ‘Independent Labour Party of India’ and published many books that were for the upliftment of the untouchables in India. Babasaheb was deadly against the caste system that was prevailing in India.Dr. Ambedkar was a writer, philosopher, thinker, historian, editor and Buddhist activist. His
ideologies and philosophies influence many people even today. He has inspired countless people, ‘upper’ castes or ‘lower’. He has taught us to move forward and achieve our dreams and live our lives with dignity and equality. He proved to all that if a person has the determination and drive, he can rise to the pinnacle of glory. One of the most remarkable things about Ambedkar Jayanti is that is celebrated and observed by both the Government and private organizations.
