    The kid clearly moved instead of staying still for the photo!

    This has happened I think to all of us trying to capture children. They move and you end up with an image much like this one. What an honor it is to view these images from the 1800's. So impressed with the quality and integrity of the images taken over a hundred years ago.

    How many of our photos will be around in a hundred year's time?

    Hi, this photo has been mentioned in a discussion thread in the Flickr Commonsgroup, and we'd love to have this added to the group pool! -- Seen in a discussion of Flickr Commons. (?)

    So happy I'm not the only one with a child that moves during picture's. But even beyond that the expressions on their faces tell the story as well.

    I took a picture from this very spot...in 2003. Love the mishmash of architecture in the building on the left.

    Striped socks must have been the fashion then!
  • Rich said:
    There are officially a few brilliant beards in this photo. wow
  • Michael Salerno said:
    What a fabulous find.
    Please not EVERY man in this shot is wearing a waistcoat.
    The horizontal striped stockings are a bit much for my taste but then I never was one to follow the fashion of the moment.
