  From Boy Scouts on a hike to children playing on a beach, this wonderful set of photographs captures British life almost a century ago。从远足途中的童子军到沙滩上玩耍的孩子们,这组美丽的图片抓拍了将近100年前的英伦生活。

  They were taken by Clifton R. Adams, who was sent to England by National Geographic magazine to photograph life in the country. Mr Adams, who died in 1934 aged just 44, had instructions to record its farms, towns and cities, and its residents at work and play。这组图片的创作者是克里夫顿·R·亚当,彼时国家地理杂志派他去英国拍摄乡村生活。杂志社对他的要求是,记录乡村地区的农场,小镇和小城景观,拍下劳作和玩耍中的居民。亚当先生在1934年就去世了,年仅44岁。

  He took the images in colour using Autochrome Lumière, which was the most advanced colour photographic process of the day。亚当先生采用了当时最先进的彩色摄影技术——奥托克罗姆微粒彩屏干板彩色摄影技术来拍摄这组图片。
