The world around us is constantly changing and evolving, even though we may not be noticing it in detail. That street you grew up in as a child is likely to have transformed by now. The same is true for countless other streets, places, and landmarks from the world over. This becomes more evident when we get the opportunity to compare different places from the past and how they look in the present.
A website named ‘re.photos’ has made that possible, thankfully. Dedicated to 're-photographies' (pictures based on “before and after”, “then and now”), they have collected several photographs of the past and the present of places from around the world. These showcase how starkly our world continues to change. Sometimes for the good. Sometimes not so much.
