  15. Try to use the GIST strategy with each paragraph- NOT EVERY QUESTION WILL BE ANSWERED/ YOUR QUESTIONS WILL BE ANSWERED OUT OF ORDER.       In 1694, a philosopher named Wilhelm Homberg discovered that light darkened certain chemicals when developing a photograph.  This discovery helped others begin creating better photographs.       In 1826, the first photograph was taken by French inventor Joseph Nicéphore Niépce. He used a polished metal plate and an oil called bitumen, which reacts to light. Photographic technology then advanced quickly, and ways of taking and developing pictures became cheaper and easier. Photography studios begin to pop up in urban areas, and “photographer” becomes a real profession.     In 1900, George Eastman invented the Brownie camera, a small, portable camera that was easy to use.Now, anyone could capture a moment with a photograph. Though color photography was invented in the late 1800s, color film didn’t take off until the 1950s.
