I'm ready for my close-up, Mr. DeSquirrel. World Photography Day

On August 19, 1839, French artist and photographer Louis-Jacques-Mandé Daguerre made public the invention of the daguerreotype process, which creates an image using a silver-plated copper sheet and mercury vapour. Accordingly, today we celebrate World Photography Day. It aims to promote the art of photography as a means of storytelling, creative expression, and cultural preservation, including the epochal daguerreotype. The world of photography is vast, and there are many subjects and styles of photography that professionals and amateurs dabble in, including abstract, fashion, landscape, and wildlife, such as this cheeky squirrel here. Some photographers seek to keep the charm and artistry of old-fashioned photography alive, though digital cameras and smartphones have made inventions like the daguerreotype obsolete in modern times.
