Francis Joseph Glacier, 1906

Brenda Anderson said:
My photo from ninety years later (taken 1996), from about the same point. You can see how the glacier has receded over that time.
National Library NZ on The Commons said:
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

Hi, i'd like to know if my picture here is Dunluce Castle from a different angle? Please let me know. I snapped this shot in 2003 while on vacation. if not, please delete this shot from the thread.
abundant weight said:
Hi Karen. the photograph listed by the library is taken from the coast, facing towards Portrush and the white rocks (which can be seen in the background). Your image is taken from above the castle, facing the water,and is about 90 degrees to the left as you look at the library photo. you may be able to compare the position of the round tower in the two images. hope this helps!
KFrench Photography said:
Ah, so it is Dunluce! Thank you !
