Merry Christmas Everyone
May everyone have the opportunity to spend time with the ones they love today. Be tolerant of the family members that annoy you, and be generous in spirit to everyone. If there are little ones, smile a little more for them, help to make this day magical for them, try to help to become the wonderful memories that they will tell their children about. Continue your family traditions, become an example to your family of how to be a man or woman, strive to become a source of strength and wisdom to your family and friends. Be a good person, a good citizen and be good to yourself. Merry Christmas.

This is the first known photo of a human being.
This is the first known photo of a human being. It is a Daguerreotype that was taken in 1838 in the Boulevard du Temple in Paris by the inventor of the process Louis Daguerre. This process involved exposing a chemically treated metal plate for 10 minutes. There were other people and carriages in the photo but because they were moving, they didn’t show up.
Only this man and a shoe shiner be seen in this picture as they stood long enough without moving a lot during the time of exposure.
