Question: What were the main subjects of photographs taken by William Clarridge in a medium-sized historic market town close to the western boundary of Hertfordshire, England?
Context: William Clarridge trained as a painter before taking up documentary photography in the early 1850s.  Two albums of his photographs survive documenting the town of Berkhamsted.  These form one of the earliest documentary records of English village life.  Amongst his pictures are a number of photographs of young girls which were sold at Sotheby's in 1984 described as "in the style of Lewis Carroll".  There is evidence that he may have visited Christ Church, Oxford in the mid-1850s where Lewis Carroll was professor of mathematics.

Thompson is a limited-edition 224 page visual biography of photographs taken by, or of, Hunter S. Thompson, published in late 2006 by AMMO Books.  Thompson's snapshots were a combination of the subjects he was covering, stylized self-portraits, and artistic still life photos.  The "London Observer" called the photos "astonishingly good" and that "Thompson's pictures remind us, brilliantly in every sense, of very real people, real colours".  With an introduction by Johnny Depp (a friend of Thompson, and portrayer of his author surrogate, Raoul Duke, in "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas"), the book stands as the only authorized biography of Hunter S. Thompson ever published.  Together with AMMO publisher Steve Crist, Thompson was deeply involved in the book's creation in the final months of his life, and it was the author's final work in progress when he committed suicide in February 2005.

The Cottingley Fairies appear in a series of five photographs taken by Elsie Wright (1901–88) and Frances Griffiths (1907–86), two young cousins who lived in Cottingley, near Bradford in England.  In 1917, when the first two photographs were taken, Elsie was 16 years old and Frances was 9.  The pictures came to the attention of writer Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, who used them to illustrate an article on fairies he had been commissioned to write for the Christmas 1920 edition of "The Strand Magazine".  Doyle, as a spiritualist, was enthusiastic about the photographs, and interpreted them as clear and visible evidence of psychic phenomena.  Public reaction was mixed; some accepted the images as genuine, but others believed they had been faked.
