Jason Powell - Looking into the Past

These are some awesome shots by Jason Powell. He took pictures from the past and held them over the spot they were shot so long ago. I think it's really cool because it shows how times have changed, and how we've changed such beautiful, historically relevant things around us. This first one is exceptionally rad because there's a little buggy in the black and white photo, and then cars in the real shot. Cool, huh? On his flikr he's got what the place looks like without the photo, uh, superimposed into the scene.
I like this one because it's not about how the world as changed so much as how people have! I wish people still dressed like that, honestly. Ugh.
Watch the power line go all the way from the real world into the picture. Awesome! Also, the fact that there is a leaf hanging down in the picture where there is obviously no longer a tree is a little disheartening...in a good way.
