This was amazing, when you think of the application of it. http://www.boston.com/bigpicture/2010/08/russia_in_color_a_century_ago.html?p1=Well_MostPop_Emailed1 So ahead of it's time, and so revolutionary (no pun intended). I hope you are fascinated by the pictures also. |

Oof. Very cool pictures, thanks. Really gives you a sense of Tsarist Russia. Can't wait for more to be posted on the 27th. |

Those are amazing photos. Definitely a mind-trip to see color photos from that era. |

Thirty years later and half a globe away, still very interesting... America circa 1940, in color Really hammers home how recent suburbia is (intellectually, I knew that the suburban push was post-war, yet it never really occurred to me that this was the America my grandparents grew up in), and how recently agriculture and the frontier still played major parts in our culture, regionally. And that's from a guy with major rural communities on three sides of his county! |

Very, very awesome. It really grounds you in the reality that even though it was so long ago, it really wasn't that long ago. |

I found other versions of those pictures in the OP that lead me to believe the color and contrast have been modified to enhance their impact. Nice photos, but what I think were the original lack some of the punch seen in the link. |
