<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\nAs many readers will know, I love photography, so I was fascinated to discover the exhibition about William Henry Fox Talbot, the inventor of photography. Lacock became his home, and it was here that he used a variety of chemicals to see how they reacted to light.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
His discovery eventually led to the discovery of the positive. He invented the salted paper<\/a> and calotype<\/a> processes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n While Talbot froze an image, Lacock feels like a village frozen in time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The abbey and its grounds are set on the edge of the village. Millions have seen the cloisters after they were used in a Harry Potter movie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/figure><\/div><\/figure><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/figure><\/figure><\/figure><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/figure><\/figure><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/figure><\/figure><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/figure><\/figure><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/figure><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/figure><\/figure><\/figure><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/figure><\/figure><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/figure><\/figure><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/figure><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/figure><\/figure><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/figure><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<\/figure><\/div><\/figure><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/figure><\/div>
