@TilleyEsquire Practise makes perfect.

@WMPHistory @Police_Oracle @ikongallery @SalBWMP @WMPolice He appears to be in a commercial portrait studio with all the common props and fittings. The photo may have been made before he was convicted, or he may have been taken there especially to have his likeness made. Is it dated?

Come and see how women were a vital part of the earliest days of photography. My lecture on 3rd May @NPGLondon tells the stories of five women following new research with @PhotoHistories , all pioneers of photography at the very dawn of its invention. #VictorianGiants twitter.com/NPGLondon/stat…

@MountieMike Instrumental is a word that comes to mind.
