介绍（中）	卡尔弗特·琼斯（Calvert Jones）将他作为水彩画家和业余打字员的丰富经验应用于他使用的热量法，但他在所需的操作和配方方面遇到了困难，最终于1845年直接向塔尔博特和亨尼曼寻求指导。琼斯清楚地掌握了摄影的潜力，将世界带到了扶手椅旅行者的身边，他渴望在那年晚些时候与亨利·塔尔博特的堂兄弟基特·塔尔博特（Kit Talbot）一起前往马耳他和意大利之前掌握热量计。是基特，他的朋友和牛津大学的同学，向琼斯介绍了热量测定法。琼斯更擅长构图而不是印刷，他把大部分马耳他和意大利底片送到亨尼曼的雷丁出版社印刷和销售鉴于琼斯对负面的关注大于对正面的关注，我们毫不奇怪地发现，这张照片是在他返回英国后拍摄的，比大多数纸质底片更清晰、更吸引人。为获得额外的透明度，底片经过打蜡和熨烫，几乎产生了所有细节和雕刻效果，仿佛它本身就是一幅正面印刷品。这位年轻人，也许是琼斯的园丁大卫·罗德里克，出现在他的许多照片中。
介绍（英）	Calvert Jones applied his considerable experience as a watercolorist and amateur daguerreotypist to his use of the calotype process, but he struggled with the required manipulations and formulations and finally sought instruction directly from Talbot and Henneman in 1845. Clearly grasping the potential of photography to bring the world to the armchair traveler, Jones was eager to master the calotype before setting sail for Malta and Italy later that year in the company of Kit Talbot, a cousin of Henry Talbot. It was Kit, a friend and Oxford schoolmate, who introduced Jones to the calotype process. More adept at composing his pictures than at printing them, Jones sent most of his Maltese and Italian negatives to Henneman's Reading establishment for printing and sale. Given Jones's greater attention to the negative than to the positive, it is not surprising to find that this image, made after his return to England, is far more legible and engaging than most paper negatives. Waxed and ironed for extra translucency, the negative yields nearly all its detail and sculptural presence, as if it were itself a positive print. The young man, perhaps Jones's gardener David Roderick, appears in many of his photographs.
