I have always loved stereoscopic photography – first saw Victorian Stereoscopic images at an exhibtion of early photography. I became even more interesed after attending a symposium on Piazzi Smyth, an Edinburgh astronomer who took amazing stereoscpoic photos of trips to Tenerife in the 1880’s and in Egypt in the 1860’s. I go on my own stereoscopic viewer and have managed to get some Victorian images – one of farming in Princes, the other 2 are from Syria. Plan is to continue to acquire more images and to start making my own.

On the Friday I met MG – the cafe / antique store we met at had a bundle of 6 stereos , which I am glad to say I bought. They are of California, Palestine, Milan, Tokyo, Louisiana and Venice.
