Moments in time



Hey all,

I stumbled upon a really interesting website that I ended up spending a
couple of hours viewing. A man near Boston has been developing ancient
film on old cameras he has purchased over the years, some film locked
inside the cameras for as long as 65 years!

These are truly remarkable snapshots of time and space. Many of the
people in the photographs on the following webpage are long past:

The most engaging pictures are in the "Soldier's Camera", which appears
to show several dozen snapshots of American life just days after World
War II ended.

It's like walking into a movie, or a dream...or both.
