First Known Photo of a Human (2 pics)
It is the first known photo of a human. This is a Daguerreotype taken by the inventor of the process, Louis Daguerre, in 1838. It is a view of the Boulevard du Temple in Paris. To achieve this image (one of his earliest attempts), he exposed a chemically treated metal plate for ten minutes. Others were walking or riding in carriages down that busy street that day, but because they moved, they didn't show up. Only this guy stood still long enough. Do you see him?
More after the jump.

This man stood still long enough to have his boots shined.
