A wonderful slide show and story of David White's photographs of Brunel's great engineering works using a reproduction of Robert Howlett's camera.
Living in the South West of England and with In-laws in Bristol I'm very aware of the many wonderful structures that Isambard Kingdom Brunel left for us. To an large extent Brunel created the South West through building the GWR connecting us to London.
This classic photo of Brunel standing in-front of the enormous chains was taken some 20 years after the invention of photography now adorns my desktop
