I have never gotten the science behind why old photography works. I only know that light hits an object and some things get absorbed and the other waves bounce off. I know that as a basic principle of how light interacts with objects/molecules. But even in the old days before digital technology, I see all the old movies/tv shows where the photographer puts the white paper in the chemical mix and waits for an image to develop. How do you get from the tiny film in the camera, to the giant white paper the picture ends up on?
