I’m not sure if it’s celebrated anywhere else, but we in Russia do have that holiday – on the 12th of July. The editor-in-chief of “Russian Photo” came up with the idea in 2009, promoted it and registered a trade mark for it. To be honest, that’s not the most authoritative source for me. However! I like the 12th of July day because on that glorious day in 1854 the Father of photography, the founder of Kodak George Eastman was born. And that’s worth celebrating. So on this day I congratulate all my friends and colleagues — in Russia and in the West. I’m blessed with an abundance of them. See for yourself!
