VICTORIA
STREET _4321
This is Victoria Street in Ballymoney
around the early 1900's to the left standing in the dooorway is a maid of
the house watching what is going on. For back then people had to stand still
for the exposure time could be a couple of minutes, it still amazes me how
the photographer could get people to do what he wanted. Further up the street
are three men standing one in his shirt sleeves and a dog in the road. Behind
them is a lady with a pram and another lady in a Promenade dress looking at
the baby. On up the road to the right are three freight wagons waiting to
be unloaded. Now on the right in the foreground are two men the one on the
left is wearing an official looking uniform with an empty cart beside them.
