William Pettigrew, Brisbane, ca. 1875

from State Library of Queensland

• Vesna Verencevic said:

  William Pettigrew (1825-1906) was a sawmiller, politician, and diarist. Born near Ayr, Scotland, he emigrated to Australia in 1848, arriving in Moreton Bay in 1849. From 1849 to 1899 he kept diaries that provide a fascinating insight into life in colonial Queensland. The diaries are now in the care of the Royal Historical Society of Queensland.

Francis Birtles, Australian adventurer, photographer, cyclist, and filmmaker, who set many long-distance cycling records, c. 1920, Arthur Ernest Foster

  Beautiful 🌟 !!!!!!! how did you capture that from Negative ?

• State Library of New South Wales said:

  Hi Jorge - the original glass negative has a black painted mask on the glass to eliminate the background. This turns white when inverted. Expanding the exif information (on the right) gives you the digitisation details. Cheers.
