Then and now: what cities and landscapes look like after several decades (31 photos)
Repotography, or repeated photographing of the same place over time, allows you to notice how much the world around you has changed. And this, I must admit, is damn interesting!
Two photographs in which the same place was taken 10-20 or more years later, without words, can show the passage of time. Similar pictures have been shared on social networks, and they are truly impressive!
