So this is the supposedly first photograph taken, and to be honest, it looks eerie as shit. What do you even think this is a picture of?
Some sort of body of water, judging by the reflections.
View from the Window at Le Gras (La cour du domaine du Gras) was the first successful permanent photograph, created by Nicéphore Niépce in 1826 at Saint-Loup-de-Varennes.
Nicéphore Niépce captured the photo with a camera obscura focused onto a sheet of 20 × 25 cm oil-treated bitumen. As a result of the 8-hour exposure, sunlight illuminates the buildings on both sides.
It's 19th century rooftops. He pointed it out the window of his top floor laboratory
well that explains a lot, thanks
Allow me to steal the thread and post something that I find to be pretty trippy, high resolution 1800s photos in color.
New York City
Chester England
There were these large, expensive delicate cameras that could take three black and white photos simultaneously through three different color filters then when the photos were developed they tinted the different layers with the opposite color.

>What do you even think this is a picture of?
what it is, is a picture of an estate through one of the windows.
on the right is a small tower connected to a building that we see the roof of, which is the broad white spot in the centre that has a diagonal black shadow pointing up, which is the side of the building that the tower is connected to. that's its roof
on the left foreground, there is a window pane that's opened from the window frame that the camera position is standing on. behind the window pane is another building which is probably the main building of the estate. the courtyard in between the main building and the building in front of the us is all black from the shadowing. there's also a black tree farther down the courtyard with farms way into the background.

Super Star Destroyer went through a wormhole and got miniaturized. It was full of little miniaturized storm troopers; they crashed on a desert island and the when a ship wrecked on the planet the story became the basis for Gulliver's Travels.

I see a wasteland, reminds me of photos of Hiroshima, I can't begin to guess what the triangle or black mass is though.

looks like a photo of a street taken from inside. those could be building on the side. and maybe just some sun/shadow artifacting for that strange angle in the middle, it is supposed to be the first picture.

I love that image. How many people, were only photographed once in their lives then? Fascinating. I spent a lot of time in Manhattan before it turned into ground zero. It's hasn't changed, but it is permanently altered.
>>18389180
I don't think it's /pol/. You sound like you were already low wattage.
Shadowbanned right /pol/? Kek.

>the shroud is print from blood
Sure it is.
You're a fucking idiot. The blood drops were painted on, not the image itself.
>>18394620
so you must think paintings and sculptures and fossils and bones are all photographs too then. ok.
Dunno the origin of this, I've just had it saved forever.
This is what it would look like.
>>18386593
