Henry Talbot was the inventor of the Calotype photographic process. In the Calotype technique, a sheet of paper coated with silver chloride was exposed to light in a Camera obscura., those areas hit by light became dark in tone, yielding a negative image. Talbot was an inventor in England who happens to be an inventor around the same time of Louis Jacques Mande Daguerre, another famous photography inventor, but had no relations to him. Talbot work with fixing images. He took images of plants, trees, buildings, nature, and also portraits. In my photo that I have taken, I have chosen to emulate the photo Talbot took of a tree during his time. The picture has been edited to match the negative/ positive effect in making it look dark, similar to the one Talbot took in the 1830’s. I have also taken it during the latter time of the day to give it the resemblance of Talbot’s photo. I have taken the picture at the same angle facing the camera a little upward toward the tree and have chosen to do it outdoors in a overcast weather setting.
