Hi!
Welcome to the boards, Observer. Yes, I suggest you to read the New Users section; it's full of very practical advices and help about this kind of things. And feel free to ask questions if you don't find what you're looking for after having searched.
I agree with Matushka: moving this thread in the IF board would be a good idea, for it's getting full of "reference" photos.
Sorry, Sarushka! I wasn't really home this week-end, so I didn't saw what you started to post. I'll complete the 1906 formal photoshoot with that:
3 wonderful pics of Alexei (I found the first one on the Rare Pictures II thread in the Having Fun section, so I've got no credit for this one, OK?)
Maria: a colored version of one of her poses from 1906. I don't know who colored it, sorry, but I think it's absolutely beautiful.
A portrait of Maria dated from 1907, I think. She doesn't look like the 8 years old Mashka we know, does she?
Those photos aren't formal ones, but they look like they were shot around 1906 and 1907 (maybe later, I can be wrong), too, and OTMA are wearing the same dresses.
And just for everybody's personnal culture, I know that they are photos of Alexandra alone, and with her sister Victoria dated from 1907, but I don't have them now.
