Very interesting for me, as Thomas Wynne was my Great-great Grandfather. His daughter Mary opened a branch of the photographic business in Loughrea, and married my Great Grandfather in 1894. Somewhere in a cupboard is an old photo album with some of the family prints in.....

Mike Hannon Amazing, Mike, what a ridiculously small world!! We'll be adding more photos from our Wynne collection over the next while - let's know what you think... Meantime, you should rummage in that cupboard!

I've added yo as a contact, so I can keep an eye out for more on here from your archives. I've scanned two prints from the album, converted them from their fading yellow to black and white, and uploaded them to my photo-stream. I have to say I've no idea who the photographer was in either case. The full length portrait is pretty much self explanatory, but the group around the still is quite interesting. Nothing to say who the group members are, or where the location is. Perhaps you could shed some light on the matter?

Egg white, or albumen, was used to bind the light-sensitive chemicals to the paper. It was the dominant method in the second half of the 19th century, until replaced by gelatin and collodion paper. Previous to the negative-positive print, invented by Fox Talbot, photographs were one offs onto metal, as invented by Daguerre.

It looks like it was full of Blakes in 1901: www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1901/Mayo/Crossboyne...

Interesting to note that both of the Wynne images you've uploaded have a magenta cast. Is there a specific reason for this? I have a fading print of this photograph in the family album, which I thought of uploading to my stream, but you beat me to it. :-)
National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
Oh sorry, Mike! I was just so eager to get it up there. Really don't know about the magenta cast - many of our Wynne photos have it, and I love it personally...
Mike Hannon said:
No need to apologise at all. It's one of those photos I was sure you'd have, and in far superior quality to the print I have. The remainder of the photographs I have are of the immediate Wynne family members, and then my Great-grandfathers offspring, so I hope to see many more of T.J's photos here.
National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
Well, if you're uploading any of the family members to your own stream, let's know - would love to see what they looked like...
Mike Hannon said:
Haha! I don't think I'll go that far yet, as I only have the free account on here, and I'm limited to 200 photos. I did come across two postcards from the era that I've scanned and posted, and though the photographs aren't credited to Thomas, they may be of interest.......
