1894 - Social chat of old times, 49 Camp, California Midwinter Exposition

Being at the expo, I’m assuming this is a staged shot.  Still pretty cool, a lot of character I think.

1904 - Yosemite Valley

I prefer not to do much clean up work, I want the photographs to remain an honest representation of what they are today - scratches and all. However, occasionally I plan to make exceptions like this one, especially when a photo is closer to art and landscape than a document of more historical value (such as Lincoln, a civil war event, a portrait, etc.). I’d like to think this is a more accurate representation as how the photo would have appeared brand new.  Lovely place.

1904 - Nature's cup of beauty filled to overflowing with the crystal waters of the Yosemite Valley, Cal.
