The Reynolds Family Album

 

Volume 3 - Developement

This volume records the largely adult family, starting to go their own ways, and encountering the major milestones in life.
I have re-issued the years 1965 - 1969 with additional content, and then continue to 1980.

The identification and dating of most of the photos was done by my parents in the 1980s, and is sometimes approximate.
Where I have had grounds to disagree, my interpretation has prevailed.

I have added other photos from my earlier works which are complementary to the current subjects.

  • The photos and postcards were scanned at 300dpi in 24-bit colour, slides and negatives at 2400dpi. (In some cases, the reverse of photos were scanned at 200dpi.) The resulting images were saved in JPEG format at 5% compression in "large" folders. The image was also cropped (where appropriate), reduced to a reasonable size for on-screen viewing and saved at 25% compression in the same format in "small" folders. An HTML wrapper has been provided to facilitate on-screen viewing.

    If you know some HTML then —
    < spin> The HTML wrapper has been kept very simple to afford maximum compatibility with an unknown target of browser types and versions. < /spin>
    < fact> I don't know much HTML and have cobbled this together as best I can. I hope it works. < /fact>
