I really love the colors of a good Autochrome. I know that the colors aren't real but they certainly fit a certain mood. Autochromes were created in 1903 by the Lumiere Brothers in France and marketed in 1907 to the rest of the world. There were a lot of incredible photos taken with this technology but by the 1930's it was dated and people went on to color film.
Here are some of the beautiful autochromes that are inspiring me today...
Do you have any favorite old technology's you wish would come back in style?
