Glass plate negatives - 3

Apart from the obvious damage to these glass plates (they were stored for many years in sheds in humid subtropical conditions), the detail in these pictures is stunning. Go to the larger image on flickr http://www.flickr.com/photos/hojucandy/4781235371/ and look at the saddles hanging on a rail outside the saddler. Photography has not come far since the 19th Century...
