| Not so long ago I saw some nice pictures of Famagusta (1974), which reminded me of probably the oldest photograph of Famagusta (Varosha, Turkish: Marash) in the world (1878). Click the URL to view this picture: http://is.gd/hqO5w |

| Nice picture, but Frank Meadow Sutcliffe was a professional photographer years before this photo. |

| RE msg 8, japeal: (...) Nice picture, but Frank Meadow Sutcliffe was a professional photographer years before this photo. (...)
=> japeal, I don't doubt it, but in msg 1 I only wrote about "the oldest photograph of Famagusta". I've checked Frank Meadow Sutcliffe's work via the links below and have not found an older photo of Famagusta! Or have I missed something?
