World Photography Day

World Photography Day

19th August 2026 By Mike Barrett

Today is world photography day. It celebrates the French government’s purchase of the patent for the daguerreotype photographic process in 1839. The first highly detailed and commercially practical photographic process. They then offered it as a free gift to the world. It also celebrates the wonderful creative art of photography in all its forms.
