the only person standing still long enough

This is so interesting: the first person to be photographed after all of the centuries of portraiture is a someone getting their shoes shined.

Hope you can stand still long enough to be able to breath and rest quietly today!
Happy Sunday, Friends!

This picture, the earliest known photograph to include a recognizable human form, was taken in Paris, France, in 1838 by Louis Daguerre. The human in question is standing in the bottom-left of the photograph, on the pavement by the curve in the road.  He is having his boots shined.
