3 December 2012

Something to ease into your week.

The folks over at iliketowastemytime.com have compiled a two-part series of 'Rare Historical Photos' - photographs from the 20th Century (and earlier) that capture pivotal moments in our history.

These are superb, awe-inspiring, and a real treat for any history buff.
My favourite is the photograph left behind on the moon by Charles Duke of the Apollo 16 mission in 1972. A relatively unknown photograph, but definitely one that highlights our divinity and mortality simultaneously.
It's even been alluded to in some of my favourite works.

Enjoy!
