Interesting Old Photos--US 1939-1943
-
wow these are great thanks, my yank girlfriend appreciated them also
Slide 28 is my favorite, it could ALMOST be an illustration.Reminds me of Gerry Andersons thunderbirds sets from when I was younger.
Although 53 is pretty epic just because of the awesome scale of the locomotive, dont make them like that anymore!

Glad you all like these.
Liam, you're right about those images. And I love those old locomotives, too.
-
Just looked at these...nice find, Dave!

yeah I loved them when I was young and even took a ride on one a few times but nothing as big as those pictures, they are immense! now that would be a sketchup challenge!
maybe next portfolio piece? -
Great photos, my dad just sent me a spam email that that has a lot of old photos of Normandy during WWII, interestingly someone went back and found the locations the photos were taken and re-took them in modern times. So, here's some more old then and now photos.

Very cool, I sent it on to my dad, he was born in '39.

What do you mean? Are you talking about the dust that was on the film when the exposure was made? The notch code on the edge identifying the film type? The diffraction around the edges of the diaphragm? The slightly slow shutter speed allowing the blurring of the motion. Or something in the scene like the young plants coming up or the detail in the clothing or the faces?

Thanks Dave, enjoyed those pictures. They knew the value of a buck when 'Oranges 1c' were on sale!
-
no Dave, don't go so far, I mean a "mimetique" coincidence. I think the clue is now evident.
-
Mimetisme or photograph instruction?
