Analog photography

Okay kiddo, let me see if I can explain analog photography in a way that makes sense for you.

Analog photography is the way people used to take pictures before everything became digital. That means instead of using a camera that saves the picture onto a little memory card, you use something called film. Film is a long strip of plastic with a special coating on it that changes when it's exposed to light.

To take a picture, you put the film into a camera that you can hold in your hands. When you press the button to take the picture, the camera lets light into a small opening called the lens. This is where the magic happens. The light travels through the lens and hits the film, which captures the image.

After you've taken your pictures, you have to take the film out of the camera and get it developed. This means the film is put into special machines that turn the developed film into actual pictures that you can hold in your hands.

The really cool thing about analog photography is that each picture is unique. Because the film is being exposed to light, the way the image turns out can be different depending on how the light hits the film. Sometimes pictures can have little spots on them, or they can be a little blurry in some areas. It's not perfect, but that's what makes it special.

Even though not as many people use analog photography anymore, some people still think it's really cool. It's almost like having a superpower - being able to capture moments in time that nobody else can.
