Finding wonder and meaning in the little things of life. Saturday, February 2, 2013. All day i hear the noise of waters. All day I hear the noise of waters. Sad as the sea-bird is when, going. He hears the winds cry to the water's. The grey winds, the cold winds are blowing. I hear the noise of many waters. All day, all night, I hear them flowing. James Joyce ( 2 february. 1882 - 1941) novelist and poet. Today is the 8th annual brigid poetry festival! Photo: lake erie, 31 january 2013. Here Are The Footb...

Pictures From Nowhere: July 2016

Saturday, 16 July 2016. 144 Year Old Bit Of Card And Paper. CdV UNKNOWN MAN (April 1862) - (1607B58). A Carte de Visite. Of an unknown man in a studio setting. The card is quite plain and unmarked on the reverse which points to an early date. Indeed a date is hand-written on the reverse - April 1862. That means this little bit of card and photographic paper is 144 year old! Wednesday, 13 July 2016. The Clue Is In The Clipping. UNKNOWN COUPLE WITH THREE DOGS (1940s! Tuesday, 12 July 2016.

Thursday, 5 January 2017. 66 : Studio Of John Wesley Thomas, Hastings. A Carte de Visite from the Hastings studio of the Victorian photographer John Wesley Thomas.

Tuesday, 28 June 2016. QF1059 : A Toby Jug Of Thin Folk. A Toby Jug Of Thin Folk (QF1059). The first thing you notice about this unknown trio is that they are all so thin. This must have been taken in the immediate post-war period when rationing had made folk lean and healthy. And then you see the matching arms, like handles on some human Toby Jug.

Tuesday, 9 February 2016. Another Bay, Another Picnic, Another Life? I am not sure whether this photograph is from the same set of prints as the last one I showed - my photo archiving system is a bit like a tumble dryer: everything gets mixed up sooner or later. But it is another bay and certainly another picnic. Like so many such found photographs, it makes me want to drop everything I am doing and write the life history of the subjects. Monday, 8 February 2016. Picnic At Lunderson Bay. One time lecture...

Pictures From Nowhere: 67 : Studio Of Scherer & Engler, Dresden
http://abdailyscan.blogspot.com/2017/01/67-studio-of-scherer-engler-dresden.html
Friday, 6 January 2017. 67 : Studio Of Scherer and Engler, Dresden. There is something unnaturally curvy about this young woman whose photograph was taken at the studios of Scherer and Engler in Dresden, Germany. My best guess at a date would be the late 1870s or early 1880s. The back of the CdV is a delight in itself. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile.
