inscription: ‘The upper illustration is of a disused chimey-stack being demolished. The falling chimey appears to be stationary in mid-air, having been photographed in one-hundredth part of a second by means of a Thornton-Pickard focal-plane shutter. The lower illustration shows the attitude of a cock when crowing, and was taken in one-eightieth part of a second by means of a Thornton-Pickard time and instantaneous shutter.’
