Default New Photograph Album

Hi Gents,

I have a few really nice original photographs so as I'm snowed in today thought I would keep myself busy and start a little album.

https://www.britishbadgeforum.com/fo...p?albumid=3579

They mostly reflect the use of the Lee-Metford rifle and it's civilian variations but have some nice insignia related images too. Some nice images of shooting teams etc.

Cheerio,

Roy

Just done a bit of clean up on the images..... the chaps in shorts are Artillery (has the feel of India).... two chaps in 2nd SA (on the Veld).... then, I would guess, 1910ish group (Canadian possibly?).

Thanks Gents,

Griff, great job on the clean up, looks cracking. I love these turn of the century/pre WWI period. You could be right about the Canadian connection on the third image, hadden't crossed my mind. I know some I have are African and Australian and I know I do have a Canadian images. Will dig around and upload another shortly.

Cheerio,

Roy
