OLD PHOTOS

I love seeing old photos, those ones that were taken right after the invention of photography, it's so amazing to see these faces wondering that they were part of the new technology, and that they had no idea were this would end up. Can't explain why, but to me the old B&W have so much poetry and heavy sensitivity that i don't find in the B&W digital ones.

Here are some of Julia Margaret Cameron's and David Wynfield's portraits, both British photographers from the 1800's and both linked in a way to the Aesthetic movement.
