What is a color photo?

Photographs taken with color photography.

2. Multi-color photos.

A color photo is a photo of a person or thing that is exposed under a photographic negative with photosensitive paper and then developed and fixed. It can clearly reflect the clear color of the predecessor or thing, and is called a "color photo".

Color printing is a photo printed on colored paper, and the printing of transparent film is not called color photo. There are two ways to take photos: negative positive and positive. Negative and positive printing is very cheap. It is easy to compensate color when printing, and it is mostly used for public printing and large-scale amplification.

The earliest color photo was 186 1 year, and the first color photo was taken in Maxwell, England (Maxwell1831–1879): a plaid ribbon.

In China, color photos became popular in the late 1970s and early 1980s, and in China's first tier cities. If popularization means widespread use, it is to use non-digital cameras first and then digital cameras. Its spread is not only determined by the film price, because color development is not something we can do by ourselves, so it depends on the development of supporting facilities, so it was really widely used in China in the 1990s, because printing equipment began to be widely used.

It was probably popular abroad in the 1960s. The invention of color photography was invented by American photographer Levi Hill in 1839. Since then, colorful natural colors have become the goal pursued by photographers. Of course, before this, some customers often asked photographers to color photos by hand, but these artificial colors were far from the real colors.
