He patented his invention in 1821. Even the term "photography" wasn't around till 1839, and at that point it was still pretty obscure, not gaining feasible, non-experimental stages until the mid to late 1800's.

Yes, I hear voices in my head, but they only speak German, so I can't understand them. ~Unknown I love going into the centre of London because people don't give a monkey's about you or who you are. You can be in a restaurant and no one notices you or if they do they won't show it. ~Teddy Sheringham I started noticing how stained the pavements are in London. The pavements in Beverly Hills aren't used; in London, they're used for everything. It doesn't matter how much they're cleaned, they still reflect light. ~Julie Christie "My mind," he said, "rebels at stagnation. Give me problems, give me work, give me the most abstruse cryptogram or the most intricate analysis, and I am in my own proper atmosphere. I can dispense then with artificial stimulants. But I abhor the dull routine of existence. I crave for mental exaltation. That is why I have chosen my own particular profession, or rather created it, for I am the only one in the world." ~The Sign of Four by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle Build a man a fire, and he'll be warm for a day. Set a man on fire, and he'll be warm for the rest of his life. ~Terry Pratchett The secret to creativity is knowing how to hide your sources. ~Albert Eintein There is hardly a man clever enough to recognize the full extent of the evil he does. François, Duc de La Rochefoucauld "Thou art all ice. Thy kindness freezes". ~ King Richard (William Shakespeare) The devil can cite Scripture for his purpose. ~ Antonio, in The Merchant of Venice (William Shakespeare) Where we are, there are daggers in men's smiles ~ Donalbain, in Macbeth by William Shakespeare A desperate disease requires a dangerous remedy. ~ Guy Fawkes A little rebellion now and then... is a medicine necessary for the sound health of government. ~ Thomas Jefferson
