This photograph was published in the Illustrated Chronicle on the 14th of March 1916.
During the Great War the Illustrated Chronicle published photographs of soldiers and sailors from Newcastle and the North East of England, which had been in the news. The photographs were sent in by relatives and give us a glimpse into the past.
The physical collection held by Newcastle Libraries comprises bound volumes of the newspaper from 1910 to 1925. We are keen to find out more about the people in the photographs. If you recognise anyone in the images and have any stories or information to add please comment below.

I came out of a client's house, after working on their computer for an hour and a half, to find this note on my bike. Which was chained to THEIR "balcony supports."

Notes: Élisée Reclus (1830-1905) wrote his New Universal Geography alone during his exile in Switzerland. It is composed of 19 volumes illustrated in particular by the cartographer Charles Perron and published between 1876 and 1894
Originally trained as a painter and having also worked as a draughtsman and lithographer before switching to photography in 1849, Édouard Baldus (1813–1889), became a central figure in the early development of French photography and acknowledged in his day as a pioneer in the still-experimental field, was widely acclaimed both for his aesthetic sensitivity and for his technical prowess. Establishing a new mode of representing architecture and describing the emerging modern landscape with magnificent authority, he enjoyed high patronage in the 1850s and 1860s. Yet, despite the artist's renown during his lifetime, his name is all but unknown today, his work savored only by connoisseurs. Baldus made his reputation with views of the monuments of Paris and the south of France, with dramatic landscapes of the Auvergne, with photographs of the New Louvre, and with a poignant record of the devastating floods of 1856. But it is his two railroad albums—the first commissioned in 1855 by Baron James de Rothschild for presentation to Queen Victoria, the second in 1861 by the Paris-Lyon-Mediterranee railroad company—that are his greatest achievement. Here he brought together his earlier architectural and scenic images with bold geometric views of the modern landscape—railroad tracks, stations, bridges, viaducts, and tunnels—to address the influence of technology (of which both the railroad and the camera are prime examples). In so doing, Baldus anticipated the concerns of Impressionist painters a decade later and those of many artists of our own day, meeting his task with a clarity and directness not since surpassed. Beginning in the mid 1860s with this publication, and lasting until the early 1880s, Baldus primary commercial activity centered on the production of photogravures, a process he first explored in 1854. This work had nothing to do with promoting artistic photography or his own photographic work; instead it was an industrial application of photography that brought credit and financial gain to Baldus as an inventor and entrepreneur rather than an artist.

More sketches and notes on the ideas for the piece. Here I'm working out the back, which now features white quartzite.

This is the first test image ever taken with my brand new Canon EOS Rebel T3i. The colors were slightly enhanced in Aperture 3 but everything else is directly out of the camera.
I'm happy with this picture because the strange DOF makes it interesting, in my opinion. What do you think?
One of the many love notes Bruce left me throughout the house before he went out of town. Oh, from a better camera than my phone.
as the basement used to house a ceramics studio, the place was lousy with shelving from wall to wall and ceiling to floor. these shelves tucked away in a closet look to have rarely, if ever, have been used.

These fine eloquent hands hold a diary, closed for takeoff of our flight, but previously open and into which this gentleman had added notes extensively in wonderful handwritten script, the details, I imagined, of his journey. His note taking included drawings, sketches of birds, and trees, that I could see. It seemed a treasure he held in his hands. He had fallen asleep holding it tightly, as I took this photo, trying not to disturb. It was held, it seemed, as something highly treasured, as the light seems to tell here.
The Author's note tells the latin name of the fish and plant in the book.
This blank journal was made for a silent auction at a benefit event. It's a sturdy little book weighing in at approximately 200 pages (lightweight acid free sketch paper, hand stitched by me!) and measuring 6"x7". The end papers are green mulberry paper with silver silk-screened leaves. The cover is faux leather with a solvent transfer of the - no joke- Toad Lumpsucker (latin name fish on it. This biological drawing was found in a 1921 edition of the Fisheries Journal - I used a solvent transfer method to print it onto blue paper. the fish is "inlaid" into the cover, not just glued on.The end bands at the top and bottom of the text block are hand sewn on, and the journal has a hollow back which enables it to lay flat when opened!
