AND FINALLY ...We all know a picture’s worth a thousand words. But what if it can last a thousand years? 📷 That’s the goal of Jonathon Keats, a photographer who wants to capture the world's slowest photograph. He set up a 1,000-year-long exposure of a big American city: Tempe, Arizona. The camera is made out of solid metal, and instead of relying on photographic film, it uses oil paints to show the flow of time. It’ll be completed in 3015. Arizona State University promises to hold an exhibition of the picture once it’s finished. Let’s hope they remember their 1,000-year-old promise! 🤞 |
