The camera obscura
The camera obscura was the very first camera ever invented,
a camera obscura is a very simple camera, however very different to any kind of cameras we use today because the camera obscura use to make things look like they were upside down. As you can see in the picture on the right, the tree is reflecting itself inside the camera and as it reflects the light which goes through the hole makes the picture look like it was taken upside down. |
Some examples:
In this picture you can see that the forest has been reflected into the room.That room is actually the camera obscura reflecting the image inside it.

In this picture the pictures has been reflected many different times into lots of little windows. I imagine this may be in a museum as there seems to be a person studying the pictures.

This picture is quite similar to the other one because it
has been reflected into a room and the room is the camera
obscura itself.
