Wide angles images are used to great effect in outdoor photography, particularly for scenic images, because they are able to get the maximum details into a single picture. A wide angled image can be truly breathtaking if it is done well. This requires two things, apart of course from an eye for a beautiful photo opportunity. One of them is having the right lens to photograph wide angles. The other is to be able to use it with the correct technique. In the hands of an experienced photographer, a camera is able to take photographs that have enough depth so as to look almost three dimensional. This type of camera lens is also invaluable for shooting in confined spaces.

Poole Pottery, known for its fine antique vases, urns, dinnerware, and other collectible china, had a history that began with the takeover in 1873 of the defunct pottery works of James Walker by Jesse Carter in the town of Poole, Dorset, England. The manufactory was located near the docks of the harbor at Poole, so as to easily offload the rich clay deposits from the nearby hills and to ship finished products to the rest of the world. The company grew rapidly under Jesse's direction, soon taking over nearby rival Patent Architectural Pottery at Hamworthy.

As the name implies, Carter's Industrial Tile Manufactory produced mainly tile and mosaic until after World War I. But gradually there seeped in the production of ceramic artware as well.
