Reminder 2


This blog has now overflowed onto a third page , Access the next page by clicking ' older posts' at the bottom of this and other pages and ' home ' to return to the first page . Double click pictures to enlarge , Picture is of a Peel 'nickey' leaving Peel harbour for a night's fishing. This picture was taken about 1910. I printed it out from an old half plate glass negative some years ago. A friend of mine had a 100 or so of these negatives [ her grandfather had taken them ] and I printed them all out, one for her and one for me . Actually , some of the prints are of excellent quality....the slow film of the day showing less grain than modern fast film........but that don't matter now ...everything is digital.
