Here is a small set of photos. Eventually we want to do something interesting
here - But this will do for now.
This page is in memory of Helmut Gernsheim who made Dodgson's photography known
to the general public in 1949 and who, over the years, has taught us so much about the early
days of photography.
There are two round robins. The second is for Alice and the first for the others.
