First of all, great and belated news for the Brontë Society! The
Telegraph and Argus reported last February the following:
An Arts Council grant to the Bronte Society of more than £11,000 will allow a photographer to produce a series of artworks with help from youngsters.
The project involves Stanbury-based Simon Warner, a professional landscape photographer and video artist, who will be employed for the first two weeks of April to work with six visually impaired youngsters from the Bradford district.
They and their families will help create a walk-in camera obscura and produce large photographs of locations in and around the Parsonage Museum.

It does sound like a very interesting project, though we know the camera-obscura creation has been done before with much success. The pictures turn out looking very atmospheric.
On another news, the
New York Times has an article on David E. Kelley's new series -
The Wedding Bells - who features three sisters. And no, this isn't the
Brontë sitcom just yet. But:
The organizers who run the Wedding Palace are three sisters with the surname Bell (unlike the Brontë sisters, they do not use Bell as their pseudonym) who inherited the business — and stately reception rooms — after their parents’ divorce. (Alessandra Stanley)
