These plate-glass negatives were found inside a shoebox by the Royal Commission on the Ancient and Historical Monuments of Scotland (RCAHMS) in Edinburgh, UK.
Quite sanititized visions of the days of the Raj I thought. Does not give room for the racial injustices committed…
Ah one more for the memory lane, and what a beautiful lane..

What a pleasure it will be to have a haircut sitting down by the roadside, and no screaming traffic and smog.

Not much has changed the colonizer and colonized remain. Just look at the so called “BPO”s.
I like b&w photographs, more feel and power to evoke. any ideas who took these photographs?
This is really ‘down memory lane’. I like how photograohs manage to evoke mood and time. *Like*
Amazing find in a shoebox hehe.
A century ago… awesome snaps. But India is no much different now in terms of population etc. , I think..
I believe there has been corruption and poor management by the State Governments which should be identified before the Federal Government takes over, to avoid being blamed for past actions detrimental to the environmental health of the nation.
