Did you know James Clerk Maxwell was a pioneer in color photography? ๐จ
In 1861, he created the first color
photograph using red, green, and blue light! He took a picture of a tartan ribbon and used three different color filters to capture it. When the images were combined, they formed the first color photo! ๐ธ
This incredible invention helped future photographers and filmmakers make beautiful images in color, instead of just black and white. Today, color photography is everywhereโjust think of all the colorful pictures we see in books, magazines, and online! ๐
