About Me

My photo
Adalbert is a forum for me, to post ephemera, photography, poetry, occasional travel notes, and various spontaneous motions. Cover photo: Parsonage where my great-grandfather spent his early years. Taken near Liegnitz, Silesia, ca. 1870. The "xothique" portion of the web address is a nod to Clark Ashton Smith's fictional continent of Zothique.

Hand-coloured stereoscopic card depicting a scene from the Russo-Japanese war period. I don't suppose "foraging" is anything like "looting."

  1. This makes me want to buy one of those stereoscopic viewers and start collecting the cards. Who needs video!

  2. They're pretty good as artifacts, but of course for full effect you need the viewer.
