The Limbo Connection's photos with the keyword: William Henry Fox Talbot

Nikon D700 + Nikkor 50mm f/1.4 AI-S lens. I was too distant and therefore have cropped this picture quite severely.

Viewed from the inside. With modern cameras, one click and you're finished. Fox Talbot would have set his camera up on a handy mantel shelf opposite to the window and the exposure would have been several minutes.
