Digitised image from the Town Hall Photographer's Collection - GB127.M850

 

The Town Hall Photographer’s Collection is a large photographic collection held in Manchester City Council’s Central Library archives, ranging in date from 1956 to 2007.

 

The collection consists of tens of thousands of images, covering the varied areas of work of Manchester Corporation and latterly, Manchester City Council.

 

The photographs were taken by staff photographers, who were tasked to document the work of Corporation/Council departments and, in doing so, captured many aspects of Manchester life and history, including significant changes to the Manchester landscape.

 

The collection includes many different formats from glass negatives, to slides, prints, CDs and even a couple of cine films.

 

What is especially exciting is that the majority of these images have never before been available in a digital format and therefore have only ever been seen by a handful of people.

 

A team of dedicated Staff and Volunteers are currently working on the systematic digitisation of the negatives held within the collection.

 

This album represents the result of their work to date.

 

Despite the odds, a cycle this late demanded a test.

Small box made from a 4x4, made by the photographer. (He's a better photographer than woodworker...) Taken in Albany, CA by a Nikon N75 with a Nikkor 28-80 kit lens on Fuji Superia 800. Exposure unrecorded: Nikon Speedlight SB-50DX used. Negative scanned into computer by an HP G4010, dust removal and gamma correction done in Paint Shop Pro Photo X2.

 

Method: Rip about ¼ inch of material off opposite sides of the 4x4, keeping off-cuts - these will be your top and bottom. (and keep track of which one is which!) Cut out center of box with a band saw, keeping off-cut. Glue bottom of box onto center. Rip ¼ inch off the top of the center off-cut, glue to top, making sure that top is centered both ways on box. I make the center slightly excentric so the top will only fit one way. Finish with one coat of orange shellac.

 

Done correctly, these make good "stash boxes": they'll look like a solid 4x4!

The use of negative space on this monument is so interesting in this setting. The right half of the monument has a matte finish, while the left half is shiny. Does anyone know what the characters mean?

Notes: Underwood & Underwood was an early producer and distributor of stereoscopic and other photographic images, and later was a pioneer in the field of news bureau photography. At one time, Underwood & Underwood was the largest publisher of stereoviews in the world, producing 10 million views a year. The Underwood brothers developed a selling system of thorough canvassing using college students. They distributed stereographs for Charles Bierstadt, J.F. Jarvis and the Littleton View Company. By 1887, they outgrew their original office in Ottawa, Kansas and moved to New York City. Offices were also opened in Canada and Europe. In 1891, Bert learned how to operate a camera and thus the firm of Underwood & Underwood Publishing entered a new merchandising sphere. By 1897, the company had a number of full-time staff and freelance photographers. In the same year, the Underwoods purchased the businesses of Jarvis; Bierstadt; and, William H. Rau. Underwood & Underwood was publishing 25,000 stereographs a day by 1901. The firm still canvassed and sold its own stereographs. Around 1900, Underwood & Underwood introduced boxed sets, with specific themes, such as education and religion, and travel sets depicting popular tourist areas of the world. (source: Wikipedia)

Negative No: 1972-0617 - Negatives Book Entry: Davyhulme Sewage Works, Various Views

I had a roll of film developed the other day and on scanning the negatives I'm getting a lot of marks like those highlighted here. I'm pretty clueless about film so I wonder if someone can tell me whether these are from dirt that was in my camera, or on the lens, or are they from scratches and dirt introduced during the developing process? I got a set of 4×6 prints along with the developing and none of them show marks like these. I don't think it likely that I'm introducing dust or hairs during scanning as my scanner is brand new and I'm using a blower bulb to blow off the negatives after mounting them in the holder.

The 24th of April

 

I took this photo for a negative space and the rule of thirds challenge on the 365 days group! This is part of my bedroom wall! It is also part of a garage door! Winters coming and it's starting to get pretty cold at night. Not that having an entire wall of metal that’s open to the air at the top is going to help keep me any warmer! I'm just meltingly glad that I have an electric blanket!

 

I also washed out the colour in this a little!
