Not bad results! The photos/pictures go right back to the 1750s! I have some serious browsing to do. Please send food and beverages if I don't resurface in a day or so.

And a sort of Flandrin-esque pose there, I may have to bundle that with the other photo you sent me recently!
I haven't dared look into the Life pics yet although it's great to have another substantial online picture resource to hand.
So did you come across this one yet?

John, the Flandrin-esque quality eluded me until you mentioned it. I was too distracted by the pumps I think!
Mel, I LOVE YOUR WORK. Nice!
