Francis Joseph Glacier, 1906

    My photo from ninety years later (taken 1996), from about the same point. You can see how the glacier has receded over that time.

    Thanks Brenda! I read (in that vague, somewhere, some-time-ago kind of way) that scientists were studying paintings of sunsets to measure air pollution over time. Photos like these make such interesting comparisons. -- Courtney

    My student of Mandarin school shanghai (www.mandarininn.cn/ ) is perfect man and he is interested in Chinese geography very much.

Castlepoint, between 1923-1928

    That's an interesting one, because it doesn't include the lighthouse, as in your other panorama:
  • National Library NZ on The Commons said:
    Do you think that Moore might be have been positioned in front of the lighthouse when he took this shot?
  • Brenda Anderson said:
    It is definitely from a lower angle, so it's quite likely he was at the level of the bottom of the lighthouse. I'll have a look sometime through my castlepoint shots and see if I can find a similar angle. All else fails, I'll just have to try to duplicate it next time I'm out there. LOL. :)

    If you're keen to do re-enactments, we have some marvellous wrestling photos in the collections we're keen to do something with this year .....!

    Now the thought of that has me laughing out loud!

An Australian? I think not!
