I wasn't kidding about what a massive useless technodunce I am... the Wordpress blog I started in an effort to act somewhat professionally about this writing thing is supposed to pull through to this blog when I post, but I MUST HAVE BROKEN THE INTERNET or something because it doesn't seem to be working.
Oh well.
The post is here - some of my 19th century photograph collection along with photos of what the studio buildings look like now.
