London in 1927 & 2013

During the 1920s, cinematographer Claude Friese-Greene captured stunning images of London; these were recently revived and restored by the BFI, and shared across social media and video websites.

Simon Smith attempted to capture his shots using modern equivalents of his camera and lenses.

    Dear Nag

    for months now, I've been lurking at the corners of your blogs---fascinated and jealous about how many wonderful things you run across and post for the wonderment of others. I haven't commented because I can only think of 3 articulate comments a day, and I'd be done by 7 a.m.

    Anyway, today I really felt encouraged to thank you for your inventiveness and your curiosity and your prolific posting.

    Thank you so much for your wonderful comment! It's so nice to know that there are others out there who like the same things I do and that I'm not blogging into a vacuum.
