Auchmithie is a village perched on a cliff a few miles north of Arbroath. Some would say that it's the original home of the famed "Arbroath Smokie", and indeed for a long time it had a much bigger fishing fleet than its southern neighbour. But its harbour, at the foot of the cliffs was possibly less attractive than that available in Arbroath and during the 19th century, much of its fleet moved away.

The village is a quiet spot today with the harbour only home to a few small vessels

Of passing note is that fact that it figures in Scott's "The Antiquary", where it is called "Musselcrag".

There is a rather nice seafood restaurant in the village which is worth a visit.

Traducción:
Auchmittie es un pueblo colgado en un acantilado a unas pocas millas de Arbroath.Algunos dirían que es el lugar originario del afamado "Ahumado de Arbroath", y en efecto, durante mucho tiempo tuvo una flota pesquera mucho mayor que su vecino del sur.Pero su puerto, al pie de los acantilados era seguramente menos atractivo que el que había en Arbroath y durante el siglo XIX gran parte de su flota se trasladó a otros lugares.

El pueblo hoy en día es un lugar traquilo cuyo puerto sólo alberga unas pocas embarcaciones.
Otro aspecto que puede comentarse de paso es el hecho de que figura en la obra de Scott "El anticuario", donde se le llama "Musselcrag"

The light, the swing, so modern.

Remarkably short skirt for the era. Perhaps as a working (fisher?) woman she needed to keep her skirts dry.

Hi, I'm an admin for a group called Shots that don't leave you indifferent, and we'd love to have this added to the group!

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.

Photo of James M. Cox, Democratic Party nominee for President in 1920, leading a parade on 42nd Street (Manhattan) from west to east, as he approaches the intersection of Madison Avenue and 42nd. The photographer's perspective is from the north side of the intersection on Madison Avenue, looking toward 42nd St. to the southwest and Cox as he approaches the intersection. The Union Carbon and Carbide Building Union Carbide and Carbon Building (built in 1913, demolished in 2001) serves as the backdrop for the scene. Here's a rough approximation of the view today, via Google Street View: www.google.com/maps/@40.7528447,-73.9792767,3a,75y,270h,9... Art Siegel

Art Siegel Thanks, Art. Correction made.

Thank you Art Siegel and TVL1970 for identifying the building!
