That's pretty good. It makes you wonder what life was like for the person in the photo

Very good, seeing it in colour when we're so used to seeing it in black and white.

Those are pretty amazing pictures to be fair. The quality is incredible. Russia and the surrounding Republics is an amazing place with an amazing history (which I don't know much about if I'm honest) I need to do something about that.

Very good stuff, although I predict there was a shortage of pies in Bukhara in 1910.

Good photo's. Others for consideration for those who like old photos, are Burton Holmes http://www.burtonholmes.org/ and Albert Khan http://www.albertkahn.co.uk/ both travelled exstensively in the late 1800's and early 20th century, well worth picking up the books, and also the DVD for Albert Khan. |
