Portrait of the Tully sisters c. 1910

It will have been around 1910 that these two sisters, my Tully cousins, will have sat for this portrait in front of one of those huge box-like old cameras where the photographer disappeared under a black sheet. The negative appeared near miraculously on a sheet of thin glass. What is as amazing is that a pile of these old glass negatives have survived more than 120 years, Having bought an LED Light Panel a few days ago I have been able to examine them properly and invert them to positives with the help of Photoshop and their neural filters. I am astonished by the quality which has been entirely preserved in this old form of photography. So if you find yourself inheriting a bunch of old glass negatives, I would implore you not to drive them to the dump! They could represent invaluable family history!
