One of the earliest colour photos, done in 1877.

It feels like a time machine. I suppose old newspapers would make it even more so.

I'm amazed, really, at both how clean everything seemed to be a century ago, coupled with how real everything looks when in a sharp colour photo...heh.

Same here. I love this thread.

Wow! You get so used to the black and white and when you look at this you are surprised that the world was just the same. Which the world was basically the same just without the computers and technology we have today and different style of clothing. This thread rocks!

The people on "Sun Giant" look like they are on 3D.
