Looking Into the Past


Looking Into the Past is a Flickr set by Jason Powell. He gets images from the Library of Congress and then aligns them in their current location and snaps the photo. So fun and creative.
He’s made a group for more people to play with the concept. I hope others join in. I’d love to see more.

it’s just neat. discovering the precise location of an old photo—that alone would be cool to do. makes me want to give it a try.
That reminds me of these similar pictures of Washington DC landmarks and the currency that they appear on:

I would love to do a Denver edition to add to his flickr group…
