As a transparent slide projected onto a surface, the photograph could be seen, not only by individuals and small groups, but also by a substantial audience. This new larger scale expanded the utility of photography, changing it from an intimate medium to one that was appropriate to entertainment and educational purposes, etc.Teresa Wilson Rogershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07340825601857084302noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5749871.post-50338566970404953682013-01-09T03:40:23.539+00:002013-01-09T03:40:23.539+00:00A fascinating occupational photo.
