Important Personalities in Police Photography

*Joseph Nicephore Niepce - was able to obtain camera images on papers sensitized with silver chloride solution in 1816.He invented a photographic process which he called "heliography" meaning "writing of the sun"

*Louis Jacques Mande Daguerre - invented "Daguerreotype", an early photograph produced on a silver or silver-covered copper plate.It formed an image directly on the silver surface of a metal plate.It was a positive process,thus,it yielded one of a kind images.

*William Henry Fox Talbot - invented a process called calotype, a photographic process by which a large number of prints could be produced from a paper negative.Calotype use paper with surface fibers impregnated with light sensitive compounds.

Calotype vs. Daguerre - fixation in calotype was only partial while images in daguerreotype were made permanent with the use of hypo (short for hyposulfite thiosulfate,sodium thiosulfate or a solution of thiosulfate). Sodium thiosulfate or hypo is a hygroscopic (readily taken up and retaining moisture) crystalline salt used especially as a photographic fixing agent and a reducing or bleaching agent.

*John Frederick William Herchel - coined the term photography and applied the terms negative and positive to photography.He made improvements in photographic processes, particularly in inventing the cyanotype process and variations (such as the chrysotype) the precursors of the modern blueprint process.He discovered sodium thiosulfate to be a solvent of silver halides in 1819, and informed Talbot and Daguerre of his discovery that this "hyposulfite of soda" (hypo) could be used as a photographic fixer, to fix pictures and make them permanent after experimentally applying it in 1839.

*Richard Leach Maddox - was an English photographer and physician who invented light weight gelatin negative plates for photography in 1871.

*Frederick Scott Archer

    Wilhelm Röntgen, a mechanical engineer and physicist in Germany on November 8, 1895 was working in a lab when he had saw some strange fluorescence coming from a table. On the table he found a tube covered in opaque black paper which he was using to study rays. He had concluded that the fluorescence that had gone through the opaque paper was caused by rays. Henri Becquerel used Roentgen's discovery of rays through the fluorescence some materials produce. Becquerel did a experiment surrounding several photographic plates with black paper and fluorescents he was going to leave the plates in the sunlight but due to an overcast in Paris he wrapped the plates and put them in a dark drawer.…

    The history of xerography has no beginning without the man known as Chester F. Carlson. His life started out rough, he was born February 8, 1906, in Seattle, Washington to a Swedish immigrant father and a mother who both contracted tuberculosis. Their illnesses were the reason the family moved to Mexico for a short period of time and also why Carlson was stuck with the role of supporting the Family financially. Although he was under significant strain for the beginning of his life he was able to better himself with years of education and hard work and in turn was able to change and improve the world of printing.…

    Thanks to photography, scientists could take photographs of microorganisms through the microscope’s lens, permanently preserving their observations through the microscope to share with others. Photomicrography even became a photographic specialty. Similarly, astronomers attempted to take telescopic photographs such as the photograph of the Moon by Lewis Rutherfurd, but the images were not as clear as astronomers wanted them to be and not as popular as photomicrography, but they continued to experiment with the photographs and compete with each other to see who would capture the best ones. The largest international effort in astronomical photography was in 1874 when scientists from Germany, Britain and France entered a friendly competition to record the transit of the planet Venus across the face of the sun (Tanzi, 3). Photography also led to a great breakthrough in medicine through the creation of the X-ray. In 1895, Wilhelm Conrad Rontgen, a Dutch-German physicist learned that an unknown ray that he labeled the X-ray, could pass through the human body, blackening a photographic plate except where the calcium in the bones absorbed them. His initial scientific paper reporting the phenomenon included an X-ray image of his wife’s hand. The Frau Rontgen’s Hand (1895, Fig. 3) is one of the first images of its kind and took fifteen minutes to create. Although light waves did not create X-rays, the public still…

    Step one is place a wet plate holder, connect the camera, remove the cover, aim, and then wait 15-20 seconds (Nordo 12). After capturing the photo a photographer used negative science and then used a base of egg whites mixed with chloride coated paper to dip the photo onto it (Nordo 14). This process took place in darkrooms; Staying in the dark room for hours upon hours, many photographers were breathing in chemicals all day (Nordo 13). Also in the summer the dark rooms got very hot, so the photographers didn't get much work done; going in and out of the hot room all of the time (Nordo 12). After printing out the photo a lot of photographers did many manipulations and explained to many people the essentials needed. After photography was introduced to everyone, people began to do something a lot like photoshop now a…

    The first true photograph was captured in 1826 with a camera and plate exposed to the sun for eight hours. The creation from this highly impractical form of photography was called a Heliograph. Joseph Nicephore Niepce’s correspondent was able to create a more reasonable medium for the film upon Neipce’s death. The silver iodine coated copper plate, named a daguerreotype after the inventor, gave hope for the creation of photography by allowing a picture to be captured in 10-20 minutes. Before this time only the rich could afford to have portraits done and could only be done by paint (Getlein 197-98).…
