London: 1907 and Now – In Full

My old London photos seem to have attracted a bit of interest, so I thought I’d put up the fullest versions that I have – I had to do a bit of cropping to make them match my “Now” equivalents in the comparison images.

I only ever photochemically printed four of the pictures – as these are the most complete versions I have, I’ve included them in this post in preference to the direct scans of the plates, for which the width was limited to that of 120 film on the scanner.

St. Paul’s Men, Nelson’s Column, Trafalgar Square and Kew Gardens are all scans from my original contact prints, the rest from the negatives.
