In reply to your post Ronnie: it might be and I might be but I'd rather stick with my nom de plume, as this is extra curricular and I'm off duty, if you don't mind. Anyway it gives a good clue as to where my architectural sympathies are begining to lie and you're definitely not allowed to admit to that in the day job!

BOOK - Understanding old Photographs, by Robert Pols.
Understanding Old Photographs aims to show that there is often more to an ancestor's portrait then at first meets the eye. The Authors earlier book, Dating Old Photographs, helped readers to identify and date the contents of the family album. This volume looks at the making of the images and the messages they convey, inviting family historians to go beyond the basic questions of 'Who?' and 'When?', and to consider what more our inherited photos can tell us.
