  3. I was all set to dismiss this photo as a tiresome steam-punk jape. That's how jaded I am.

    And I wanted to prove, to myself at least, that it was a fake.

    Well, it seems my curiosity ended up getting the better of me this time, because this daguerrotype is very real, ca 1850. Portrait of a blind man holding a cat.

  16. This time it took me 3 days to write for Sunday's prompt. It gave me some problems deciding what to write. Have a good write my freinds!
