I saw this request for info on a British Photographic History site I follow. If you have any info , you can share it directly (will need to join, free but takes time!) or I'm happy to pass any info on.

Johnston Shearer of Aberdeen
I have a photograph of Fetheresso Castle, Stonehaven, dated 1856 and which may have been exhibited in the Photographic Society of Scotland exhibition in Edinburgh that year. Taken by Johnston Shearer and a collodion photograph. I can't find too much about him or if this photograph might be of any value / interest to a museum or other collection. Any information would be gratefully received
