"Between 1910 and 1930, a series of 2500 ‘special photographs’ were taken by the New South Wales Police Department.

These ‘special photographs’ were mostly taken in the cells at the Central Police Station in Sydney and are of men and women recently plucked from the street, often still animated by the dramas surrounding their ‘apprehension’.

Compared with the subjects of prison mug shots, the subjects of the special photographs seem to have been allowed – perhaps invited – to position and compose themselves for the camera as they liked."

Here is January’s “Featured Image” from my website:

Two men on an outdoor bench,
one with high button shoes.

One man has his hand on the other’s knee.
The other has his arms folded.

Is he defensive?
Is there some tension between these two men?
What’s the story here?

A new “Featured Image” is now up for March, scroll to bottom of my landing page:

Me, 1962 or 3, and 1964 or 5.

I was adorable, as you can see. No, I don't look like this now, and I'm basically a grump. 😀

A different sort of photo project I completed last year.

When my mother-in-law passed away in 2018, my wife and I were fortunate enough to buy the family home. While my wife was going through her closet (which used to her mom's closet), she found a vintage Kodak film box tucked away on the top shelf. In the box were several hundred 90+ year old photo negatives.

The short version of the story is that I scanned 250+ negatives, and edited and uploaded them to my photo gallery site. https://www.pottedpalmproductions.com/Clients/Batt-family-project/n-Md7QKr

The long version of the story is posted to a website I created for the project. https://fjbressette.wixstudio.com/batt-photos

I used to tease my mother-in-law when she was alive about never throwing anything out. This is definitely one time I am glad that she kept everything. I only wish that she was here to reminisce with us about all of these family memories.

Ein Bild, das u.U. auch für die #Üstra #Hannover interessant gewesen wäre, so sie hier vertretenen wäre

Das Foto stammt aus dem Nachlass meiner lieben Großtante (1896-1976) und abgebildet ist neben der alten #Straßenbahn auch ihr Schwager, den ich noch als imposanten “Onkel Heinrich” in Erinnerung habe. Er könnte die vorn erhöht stehende Person sein.

#vintagephotos #vintagephoto #oldphotos #tram #trolley

Zu sehen ist ein altes Schwarz-Weiß Foto, wahrscheinlich aus den 20er oder 30er Jahren. Auf dem Bild sind hintereinander zwei Wagen einer alten Straßenbahn zu sehen. Der vordere Wagen hat die Nummer 29 und ein Schild auf dem Hannover Bahnhof steht. Vor dem Wagen stehen insgesamt 15 Männer in der Uniform und mit der Mütze eines Straßenbahn-Schaffners oder -Fahrers. Einige der Männer haben Kassierbeutel umgehängt. Im Bildhintergrund ist ein gemauerter Lockschuppen erkennbar.

DO YOU KNOW THESE PHOTOS?
A dozen vintage family photos were found late last Friday night (Aug.23rd) at the "Jefferson Park" Blue Line train station in Chicago. CBS-2 Chicago News is trying to help get them back to their rightful owner. [YouTube video link below.]

The Blue Line train route includes O'Hare Airport, and the photos were found soon after the #DNC ended. It is possible they were lost by an attendee.

The photos were taken in Benton Harbor, Michigan City, and two Chicago photo studios. Most date from 1900-1930. One photo says, "Myers and H. Jones" on the back.

Please boost to help them get back to their family.
