A fascinating look at Tsarist Russia.
 
http://www.loc.gov/exhibits/empire/object.html

Photographs taken between 1907 and 1915 using a special camera that captured the image on red, green and blue plates respectively. When the three plates are combined, the image is in colour!

I like this. There's a few pictures that I like more than others:

I love the effect that the plates give the water in the second picture.

I believe that the reason for that is because three pictures were taken in quick succession (one to each plate) over the period of a few seconds, rather than all at once. For something like architecture, or people, the three pictures will be the same because things don't move. Water, however, is a different story.

I agree that the effect is nice.

So you finally found a replacement for Corridor Girl?

Unless you have a child like the one in the lower left hand corner of this picture that decides to move.

Wow, this is pretty cool! Thanks for the post, Lenny. I've gone through a ton of 'em and theyre all pretty cool.

Everyone in those pictures are dead. Shame on you.

Lenny 2009-09-08 01:08 PM

You make no sense at all. How does bolding those two sets of words bring you to any conclusion even similar to Corridor Girl? :confused:
