I have tried to send this message a few times. Hopefully my new address works this time. Will Smith Project Officer (Botanical Imaging) Queensland Herbarium Science Delivery Department of Science, IT, Innovation and the Arts (DSITIA) Brisbane Botanic Gardens Mt Coot-tha Mt Coot-tha Road, Toowong, Queensland, Australia 4066 Phone: (07) 38969508 From: Will Smith Sent: Tuesday, 7 October 2014 9:37 AM To: 'SciArt-L Discussion List-for Natural Science Illustration-' Subject: early scientific illustration material Hi Geoff, I'm not a great surfer of the web so I would appreciate some starting points for the material mentioned in your post below, especially if it was botanical, if you could spare some time to send them. By the way it looks like we are getting a motorised microscope for taking slice photos. It should be fun to use. Cheers, Will Thanks Trish, Let me know about the other one. I photographed many of the old books myself but so much early scientific illustration material (like the Robert Hooke images) is now available for free download in high quality and of course it's out of copyright.
