Yeah I was asking what year, thanks!Borum-Ex frm TOForum wrote: ↑Mon Mar 05, 2018 10:57 ami've no idea what year the pics are taken...Brewer wrote: ↑Mon Mar 05, 2018 9:47 amHe's asking what year they were taken, I think. The problem with monochrome photos without, for example people, is they can be difficult to date. If there were people on them their dress might provide a clue to era/decade or whatever.
Personally, I find photos like that very bittersweet to look at. They are magnificent and remind me of my first visit when there were hardly any people to try to photograph around. But now, as the people of Devon and Kernow would have it, fucking pestilential grockles and emmets everywhere.

The first photos of Angkor Wat were taken by 29-year-old John Thompson, a Scotsman, in 1866. These pictures were taken just a few months later by a Frenchman Emile Gsell, who was 28 at the time.
