This is shortlisted to be one of the first amateur photos made with Kodak n.1
Without amateur photographers Photography could not be improved and could be a boring professional work.
Without amateur photographer we couldn’t have millions of family album, as well beautiful photo-mistakes (fingers or feet on the photos, the authentic street photography, the real and the everyday story of the fashion etc…)
“Kodak n.1, invented and marketed by George Eastman in 1888, was a simple box camera that came loaded with a 100-exposure roll of film. When the roll was finished, the entire machine was sent back to the factory in Rochester, where it was reloaded and returned to the customer while the first roll was being processed. By simplifying the apparatus and even processing the film for the consumer, he made photography accessible to millions of casual amateurs with no particular professional training.” “You press the button, we do the rest.” See more here: http://www.metmuseum.org/toah/hd/kodk/hd_kodk.htm
