  Thank you for the readable name tag, SDASM.
  
  I don't know what manufacturer makes this theodolite. It might be a Zeiss? If you know, please add a tag.
  
  Which Q. A. lab this guy works in is unclear. There are some Saltarellis in Tustin city government. There are two in the San Diego phone book but no Phillip.

Gold surveying camp near Trunkey, New South Wales, 1872-1874

  Lovely scan, so much detail: the birdcage, the recently washed and neatly lined up tin mugs and plates, the fine bark hut, the camp oven, the billies, the wash dishes... Machattie Park in Bathurst was named for Dr Richard Machattie. www.environment.nsw.gov.au/heritageapp/ViewHeritageItemDe...

• Blue Mountains Library, Local Studies said:

  Merryjack Plenty of fire wood and that large camp oven appears to be adjacent to a fire pit. Is that a big pumpkin on the right with a smaller one on top? I suspect Beaufoy Merlin arranged the objects in the foreground to add interest to the photo.

• Highranger said:

  Merryjack I agree, although a poor attempt arranging the items when just moving the camera forward a bit would have solved the empty space problem and provided a closer detail of the subjects.

• State Library of New South Wales said:

  Thanks for all the extra information - there's a wealth of detail in these negatives. The clarity and focal depth early cameras like this one was very good especially on the larger plates like this 10 in. x 12 in one. But the exposure times were another matter as you can see with the trees and the tent flap.

  This might be a Wild T-2000 but I can't tell. Anyone else?
