Some more glass plates. Look at the dress on the group and the boxes are interesting.

I’ve been sorting through a few glass plates I’ve been given some really interesting images. I’ll post a few over the next few days there’s about 50 +. Mainly the Oxford area.

I have been taking Polaroids of my garden and the views from it and divided them into seasons - an ongoing project that started a few years ago and here are a few from Winter on the Pennines.

A interesting project started. Restoring a 5x4 Gowland TLR. Just started on the shutter a Syncro Compor no 1 shutter. Not done one of these for a while.
