Now that I've read this I feel as though I wasted my player photograph on the wrong task...Oh, well, good excuse for another project!

One of my favorite photographs is nearly 100. Anyone in the area next March? ~Waldo

The view down the 600 block of S. Wolfe Street, Baltimore (c. 1912-2008) Now home to Smedly's Coffee House. (You might have to give it a bit to let the animation to fully load.) The original photo was taken in 1912 by a fellow by the name o...

When I first saw this task I was super excited, as I've done similar things before. I am a fan of treasure hunts and scavenger hunts and have had tasks where we had to find the precise point where a 100+ year old photo was taken in order to pass that...

I wanted to try something classic. After a little research I found that burning monks are VERY hard to come by these days. So much for that idea... What's the next best thing? The 1934 Loch Ness Monster photo of course! So, I amble on down to the lak...

This was quite the difficult task, we couldn't find the hat, or sleeping bag on short notice. Instead, we used a blanket and omitted the hat all together.  We both took a couple pictures of each other, trying to find the best scope, but that was als...

Rephotography by miss understanding June 17th, 2008 2:29 PM

This task was much more difficult than I thought it would be--most likely because it involved a tripod instead of another person. I still think it came out all right. Maybe I should find a picture of my mother and rephotograph that one as well and se...
