Haunted By Cameron Image

This Ceylon photography by Julia Margaret Cameron has been haunting me the last few days.  A 150 year old photograph that haunts in 2021,  now that is some great photography! 

I hope some of the work, especially the coming wet plate ambrotypes have the chance to be exhibited at Cameron's old home Dimbola, on the Isle of Wight, England. What a true honour it would be to show photographs where JMC made so many great works.
