Old colonial photos

Hundreds of old photos from Fiji's colonial days have come to light and are now posted on flickr for everyone to view if they wish. Go to http://www.flickr.com/photos/nationalarchives/collections/72157632012277853/

25 January 2013

The National Archives has released online thousands of early photographs and drawings of Australia, New Zealand, Fiji, Tonga and other Pacific Islands.
Just in time for Australia Day on 26 January, you can now view images of Australian towns, buildings, landmarks and people dating back as far as the mid 19th century.
The photographs have been uploaded to the photo-sharing website Flickr so that you can tag and contribute comments and suggestions to help improve the descriptions.
The images are taken from the Colonial Office's photographic collection.
