The Old Homestead

Posted on August 18, 2022 by Joe

Here is a shot of my parents’ house in Westville, NJ that I took sometime during the Fall of 1982. The Sears branded SLR camera I shot this with was borrowed from my Father and was loaded with either a … Continue reading →

The Cat People Valentine Special

Posted on February 14, 2018 by Joe_Williams

Rather than bury one another under a mountain of clutter, Tina and I make cards for each other. I think I have run the course of angry or ironic Cupids so I decided to go weird for this Valentine.

Philadelphia Museum of Art circa 1941

Posted on May 19, 2017 by Joe_Williams

Dad wearing a casual jacket (which was weird for the time being that everybody wore a suit jacket and tie everywhere) in front of the Philadelphia Museum of Art. I cropped it off of this image, but ’41 is written … Continue reading →

Encore Presentation

Posted on February 19, 2015 by Joe_Williams

I’m sad to say it, but it looks as if we’re at the end of the line as far as the Capewell Glass Negative Collection is concerned. I’m going to review my posts and the digital files just to make … Continue reading →

Some Time Later

Posted on February 5, 2015 by Joe_Williams

When I was first examining the glass negatives that comprised the Capewell Collection, I wasn’t sure what or who I was looking at. The sheer number of them was overwhelming at first, and it wasn’t until I photographed them and … Continue reading →

Another Equestrian Monument

Posted on January 29, 2015 by Joe_Williams

Here’s another equestrian monument shot by Westville’s John B. Capewell, and, once again, I’m at a loss as far as what and where it is. I’ll leave it’s identity up to my sharp-eyed readers.

Man on a Path

Posted on January 22, 2015 by Joe_Williams

Here’s another nature shot by John Capewell. Sadly there is no way to tell where it was taken. I’m not sure what was so special about the scene that Capewell felt compelled to shoot it. It may have been a … Continue reading →

Here’s one that I’m guessing John Capewell shot up at Niagara Falls where he has taken his camera a number of times.

In with the new

Posted on January 1, 2015 by Joe_Williams

This looks to be one of John Capewell’s sons although I’m not sure which one. I had posted another negative from this photography session a while back. Capewell was rightly proud of his baby and aimed to capture his image … Continue reading →

Express

Posted on December 18, 2014 by Joe_Williams

I don’t have a specifically Christmas themed glass negative from John Capewell, but this one with a child, a canine playmate and a toy wagon will have to do. This looks to be Capewell’s younger son Henry with the family … Continue reading →

Mom, Frosty & the Kids

Posted on December 11, 2014 by Joe_Williams

A while back I had posted a number of photos of the Capewell children happily cavorting with a snowman. This plate looks to be taken a few winters after the other shots and the kids along with their mother seem … Continue reading →
