South London Photographic: Then in 1878 Charles Harper Bennett allowed the emulsion to ripen by holding it at 90° F for several days before washing. He found this emulsion to be remarkably light sensitive: exposures could regularly be made in sunlight in the fraction of a second. Photographs of people jumping and of flowers after watering, with the falling drops visible, amazed the photographic world when they were shown at the South London Photographic Society. A new era opened.
