It's all about the plate.
Get your chemicals,
But not too late.
15-20 seconds
And the photo looks great.
Take your time,
And everything will turn out just fine.

Eastman made film portable
With his rolls in small capsules.
Negative image means one sheet,
While color requires a whole fleet.

Autochrome -1904

A whole new world from autochrome
It involved potatoes, but not ice cream cones.
Potato starch and dye was the key.
It produced every color in the sea.

35mm Camera - 1924

The 35mm became the top pick.
Machine based developing was really slick.
Inaccurate shutter nobs
With caught up film
Made for a tough job.
Advanced for its time,
Photojournalists were waiting in line.

Kodachrome - 1937

Color was not new
But they used to spread like goo.
Kodachrome made colors sharp
And photography had a whole new type of art.

Digital Camera - 1975

Digital was a milestone.
But the first was as heavy as a throne.
Batteries were a need
And black and white was all that could be seen.

DSLR is the best yet.
Small and digital,
It's your best bet.
Quality and speed:
All a photojournalist needs.

Instagram or instagold?
Although not very old,
The app is like a world map.
Quality photos from across the globe,
Instagram wears the Godly photo robe.
