Origination of World Photography Day
Along with celebration, knowing about the origination of World Photography Day is also worth. It originated after the invention of the Daguerreotype photographic processes, developed by Joseph Nicephore Niepce and Louis Daguerre in 1837. But on August 19, 1839, the French government announced the invention as the first practical gift to the world. In a way this was the true beginning of the World Photography Day.
You Don’t Need to Be a Photographer to Celebrate World Photography Day
You are a human being without any camera or mobile-with-camera but you still should celebrate the photography. Why? Because at-least once in life, you must have come across some photos which you liked – may be those in which you were captured in the cam. Photographs make our lives even glowing and profound. Imagine a world without the camera; no photos, no memories saved! To me, it pretty looks bored and dark. The world has been many a times changed by the effective use of photography.

You Don’t Need High-end Equipments to Celebrate World Photography Day
Some people might think that for being the expert or a good photographer, you need high end equipments; DSLRs, high-tech lenses etc. But it’s not true. You just need to know your equipment or deivce, composition and light intensity to be a good photographer. I have many friends who have taken the very fine photos with little devices. Of course, you should add more to your equipments but I am just saying that doesn’t necessarily improve your photographical skills.
