1915 Colour Photos
These are just great. Almost seem unreal but I love the atmosphere.

Amazing. It's surprising how much we associate B&W pictures with "old" and colour ones with "new" and those pics really bring it home to you.

I've seen the fat guy in the blue dressing gown with the sword before, I had no idea it was that old.
Amazing (and a cool technique as well, clever Russian)

They're awesome
they first one, and then one near the bottom with flowing water are the best. I love the effect of flow that you get with long (or in this case multiple) exposures of water. And to think that they're so old too, would never have guessed that in a million years.

It's like when you visualise things from 'the past' it's usually in B&W or sepia as that's what you've seen pictures of. It really surprised me to see such bright colours!!

I remember when I was a wee lil' lad and I thought that people actually used to live in black and white
