问题    The first small camera was invented in 1685, but it was just a camera. It was a long time before people figured out how to make the right kind of paper for photographs. Modern photography, as we know it, really came into being in the 19th century, around the year 1865, to be exact. In the late 1800s and early 1900s, photography really took off. Several types of cameras were invented during the time, and photographers also came up with new and better ways to take pictures. Photography became a form of art.

   Although most people think photographs show real things, photography also changed people’s ideas about modern art. Modern art developed in the late 19th century, around the time of the invention of photographs. Modem art was different from other kinds of art because modern art paintings did not try to show "realistic" pictures. For example, artists of modern art often produced paintings that looked different from a real picture. Photography was perfect for producing modern art. For example , a photographer could focus on the subject of a picture and make it look very clear, while other parts of the picture were not in focus and therefore looked fuzzy. In this way, photographers could make pictures look less realistic.
   We are now living in the time of postmodern art. Postmodern art developed in the late 1950s and has allowed for further changes in the world of art. In the case of photography, computers have changed a lot about the way that photographs are made and viewed. For example, a photographer can now take pictures using a digital camera. These pictures can be saved on a computer and changed using a computer program. In this way, the photographer can change the colors and many other aspects of a photograph. For example, the photographer can change all of the colors in a photograph to light or dark red, or he or she can make photographs darker or lighter. These kinds of treatment can create interesting effects.
   Computers are also changing the way people share photographs. In the past, a photographer had to put his photos in a book, called an album, to show his photographs to lots of people. Now, with the Internet, photographers can share their photographs with thousands of people quickly and easily! This means that even teenagers can create interesting photographs as a kind of art to share with people around the world.
