Source: Photographic Society of London




Here is a photo of the 1858 Exhibition of the Photographic Society of London featuring old photographs and cameras on display

The exhibition was the first to take place in that part of the museum and it was the first time any museum had exhibited photographs at all. It consisting of 1009 photographs and included approximately 250 contributions from its French counterpart, the Société française de photographie.

The whole thing was organized by the Photographic Society of London. It was the Museum's official staff photographer, Charles Thurston Thompson who captured this photo of the densely packed display back in 1858. Thus creating the earliest known photograph of the earliest known photographic exhibition held in a museum.

Morning, they've put over a thousand miles on it driving up and down the driveway since xmas
When I was tooling about on my Harley dresser, I gave the Wave to scooter riders. For me the y/n criterion was “two wheels in line and a gas motor”.
It saddens me when riders get parochial.

Note: the spell check turned the word in the first sentence to “dressed”. Changes the entire tenor of the sentence and makes me come off even weirder than I already do.

People have been lighting off fireworks every night for the last couple of weeks, including tonight. Is anyone else experiencing this, and what the fuck is it for???
This has been going on nightly at my house since Memorial Weekend. Apparently a number of people spent a significant amount on M-80s and other fireworks. I feel sorry for my dogs.

Happening at my ladies house in Delano, for weeks and weeks. She has a couple little dogs...The Shi-Tzu freaks out, but the chihuahua mix barks at the shi tzu like "On no, don't start with your BS again. STOP FREAKING OUT, IT'S JUST A LITTLE NOISE"
