LOOKING BACK
Since they are permanent, familiar, accessible, and part of nature, landscapes have been one of the most favorite subjects by most photographers. photography can be traced as early as 1849 when the book “Egypte, Nubie, Palestine et Syrie” containing prints of paper negatives was published.
