Time machine photo effect using Corel Paint Shop Pro.

Daguerreotype — Widely used from 1839 to 1855, the
daguerreotype was the first popular form of photography.
Images were captured directly on a thin piece of silver-plated
copper. Because no negative was produced, copies could not be
made, so each image was unique. Daguerreotypes are often
characterized by their reflective quality, a darkening at the
edges, and a dark blue-gray or brown-black color.
