Comments received from visitors to Photohistory S.A. "A truly impressive reference of early photographers, their techniques, tools and
works. It is utterly fascinating and adds significant substance to the South Australian
Net presence."
"Researchers, students, teachers and family historians will thoroughly appreciate
the huge effort being made by R.J. Noye, from Clare, who has initiated Photohistory
SA. The site features 230 images and lots of detailed information on the history of
photography in South Australia. Bookmark this site and regularly visit as more and more
material is added."
"Hello from sunny Athens! We would like to inform you that your site has been
included in the links section of the GREEK PHOTO WEB - the meeting point for Greek
professional photography on the Web. In our links section we present sites we believe are
of valuable content for professional photographers and in this regard we would like to
congratulate you for your excellent content and Internet contribution."
"Your site is quite interesting, something really worth while seeing. The amount
of work you have done is phenomenal. The images included makes your place a delightful one
to surf, but the amount of information is what will make Photohistory SA a main site for
those interested in photography in Australia, and a great contribution to the
understanding of the history of photography as a universal and boundary-less
phenomenon."
"I visited your site and was overwhelmed by its size. So much text and graphics! That is definitely a great site about photography. And although many people don't like frames, your use of frames is absolutely helpful in organising your site." R.W., Denmark.
"The thing I like about your site is not just the interesting photos, but that you
obviously know and love your subject and write well about it."
"Your page is amazing. I love the hand-colouring. Congratulations."
"Found your home page very well presented and interesting both from the point of
view of a family historian and an 'old ex hand-colourist.' It is wonderful that you refer
to them as artists, for that is what it was - artistry, but we had to be content with
'colourists'."
"Congratulations for your web of photohistory."
"I have just spent twenty minutes browsing your home page. There is so much of
interest that I shall certainly be back for further searching! There is so much of wonder
in the pages about photographers that you can expect to have me commenting again in due
course. Thanks again for the marvellous effort in putting all this together."
"Got a good look at your Internet site. Fantastic... You really should have made
it into a book. An incredible effort. You have some of the most fantastic photos of old
photographers."
"Your site is fabulous, such a lot of information. It's so helpful to have your
information so readily available for research purposes. The photos are all so clear and
interesting to look at. I admire the work you have done, not only with this site, but with
your Clare book which I refer to quite often."
"What an outstanding resource you are producing for all South Australians. Having
studied Year 12 Photography during 1997, I feel that your website is a fabulous resource
for all, but especially students, so I intend to pass on your website address to my
teacher so that his students can enjoy the history of their studies."
"Congratulations on this fabulous addition to Australian resources. What a delight
it was to see. Many thanks Bob, and well done!"
"The site is well worth a visit to show how the web can be imaginatively employed!
Very well organised, extremely easy to navigate, and will be really useful to researchers.
Good marks for a first class effort."
"Thanks for your web site - it's an excellent site for students of South
Australian history."
"It deals with the photographic history of the state of South Australia and
I think it represents a benchmark for other such sites to come."
"Thanks very much for your lovely site. I REALLY look
forward to visiting it again soon."
"I visited your site yesterday and today. It is an impressive piece of work and
the photographs are great."
"I can only wonder at the time and work you have given the world. Your
selflessness and generosity will be greatly appreciated by those who access your
magnificent efforts. It is a boon to researchers and archivists alike. Keep up your most
excellent research."
"We've looked at your Web page and think the photographs, etc., are wonderful. The
quality of the images seemed to be exceptionally good. The history angle is very
interesting and it is great that the old can meld with the new in this way."
"Congratulations on a site which will be invaluable to collectors of South
Australian history and genealogy, both for information and for inspiration."
"Saw a note about your website. It is really great to look at and one of the
really worthwhile web sites that I have seen. Congratulations on an innovative approach to
displaying the History of Photography. I am glad to see you are still at it, and keep up
the good work."
"Thankyou for the opportunity to observe some of your collection tonight."
"Just been through most of your site and enjoyed it, even though I do not know
much about photography."
"Keep up the good work, it will help to keep you young." ooooOOOOoooo |
