I do like old photos, especially naturalistic ones. Here’s a load, mainly of sailors, that fit that category (via Haughey). There’s something kinda alien about old photos, like they’re from another age, which they kind of are more and more as time goes by. The fact that the people in them are probably dead or at least very old makes it strange to think of them acting ‘normally’ in a world similar but different to mine. I’m not putting this very well. I like old photos. here’s some I found in a junk shop a couple of years back that appealed to me. Something about the eyes.

About this site
In June 2000 I started blogging at peteashton.com and 10 years later in June 2010 I decided to stop. Blogging here, that is. I started a clean slate over on I Am Pete Ashton and maintain all manner of other web presences which are all listed here along with my contact details.
You probably came here via a Google search or from following a link on some old blog post somewhere. I hope what you find is useful in some way, though do check the publication date - it might be rather old now.
Thanks for your eyeballs.
