Thomas D Westness was a prolific photographer of Alderney views and
events. He moved to Alderney from Guernsey in 1890. Several
of his photographs were still being produced in postcard form into the
1930s.
There are no pictures extant of Mr. Westness but one of his female
relatives appears in a few pictures, and his footsteps are visible in one
of the Telegraph Bay pictures.
