    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.
  • Christine's Backyard said:
    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.

    Works well using the "cross-eyed" method.
  • Necessary Lunch said:
    Oh wow. Fantastic.

    It's inside out 3D for cross-eye. You need to view it with the parallel eye method. There is a website that will convert this to cross-eye format and anaglyph for red-cyan 3D glasses.

    I'm really enjoying the historic photographs that the National Galleries of Scotland has added to Flickr: The Commons! Great selection! Thanks!
  • Stephen Buchan said:
    The perspective of this view is odd - it looks as though the road descends towards the west.
  • Over the Top of NY said:
    What a wonderful series of photos. It looks quite unchanged, and is one of the loveliest walks, from Holyrood to the Castle. :) Wish I were there now!
  • inquisitive hope said:
    Yes, I do wish I was here also. I have a lovely memory of this though.
