118 years makes only a "little bit" of difference.
I have a huge appreciation for history especially when it pertains to my local town. Recently I picked up a book full of really old photos throughout Fremont's history. One of these stood out to me for its high angle and strangely familiar scene.
The original picture was captured looking south from the old waterwork's chimney located at what now the current powerhouse apartments. I attempted to capture a similar perspective using a drone to bring it to the modern day.
There are a ton more interesting pictures in it that I may end up recreating and doing more side-by-side comparisons. Let me know if you would like to see more like this.
