When thinking of early photography, most people don't realize how different or difficult taking a picture was when first invented.

In the late 1800's, photographers would would arrange their big bulky cameras on a stand, then ask subjects such as families to sit perfectly still for three minutes for the image to take. If they wouldn't sit still that long pictures would look fuzzy and blurry.

When you think about this you can see what a true master Henry Hamilton Bennett really was.
