- @NatGalleriesSco have some wonderful images on Flickr Commons, but why nothing since late 2008? http://t.co/7RPt80T0 #
- @JayneShrimpton Fanastic! I have some more images and research that I need to add. Feel free to email me if you want me to take a look. in reply to JayneShrimpton #

- @JayneShrimpton Intrigued by these pics. Only entries I have for Porter are 1880s onwards, like most Ealing studios! http://t.co/dCsP1jX6 in reply to JayneShrimpton #

- .@TWArchives thanks for your suggestion, but I'm not convinced this is Berwick – very similar though http://t.co/pRFTe9il #
- @Historypin thanks for the tweet – hoping to do some more pinning this week! in reply to Historypin #
- @TWArchives @NemesisRepublic @EastMarple1 after all that it turns out the image was of Penryn, Cornwall! http://t.co/pRFTe9il #
- @NemesisRepublic @EastMarple1 @TWArchives Good question, it does seem odd. Maybe he made those boxes? Or just coincidence it ended up there. in reply to NemesisRepublic #

- Always great to discover a new private collection on Flickr, this one in Hungary. Lovely images. http://t.co/8nRLx4nS #
- Opinions sought – could this unusual early dog image be the famous 'Greyfriars Bobby'? http://t.co/hJBg1srh #
- @NatGalleriesSco @CuratorEMG @tumshie I'd love to know if you think this might be Greyfriars Bobby – http://t.co/hJBg1srh #
- @NemesisRepublic thanks for the RT and suggestions. I've also contacted @NatGalleriesSco @CuratorEMG who have images in their collections #
- @JayneShrimpton Indeed. Quite an unusual mount too. I don't think it can ever be proven 100%, but personally I think it probably is Bobby! in reply to JayneShrimpton #
- @CuratorEMG Great, thanks. To me that's the strongest evidence. But do we know anything more about Patterson? Was he reputable? in reply to CuratorEMG #
- @CuratorEMG Looking at http://t.co/Dsjtui3U it appears Patterson went on to be a publisher, with photography only early on in career in reply to CuratorEMG #
- @CuratorEMG Indeed. I suspect there'll never be a 100% answer on this or any other 'Bobby' image. Thanks for your considered comments. in reply to CuratorEMG #
