Answer to Question 1

E
Early photographic artists embraced labor-intensive printing techniques that allowed them to blur unwanted detail, enhance tonal range, soften focus, and add highlights and delicate veils of color, resulting in images that drew close to painting in their effects.

Answer to Question 2

B
Daguerre made a breakthrough for photography by recording an image that was clear and sharp and could be duplicated easily. His light-sensitive surface was a copper plate coated with silver iodide, and he named his invention the daguerreotype.
