Photography Appreciation
While searching the SMU Central University's flickr's account, I came across photos of El Paso, Texas in the late 1800s by Francis F. Parker. From the little research I did, I found that Parker was a photographer who had a photo gallery on 111 El Paso Street. Photos were printed on albumen paper, which was common practice, during that time.
