This is such a beautiful idea it’s untrue. I was reminded of it by a post on Warrens’s site.
Looking Into The Past, a Flickr pool devoted to combining old photos of locations, buildings, and people with the present day scene. The ones with the most impact have the photographer holding an old photo in front of the camera lined up with features in the scene.

It’s incredible how little some places have changed really. There’s a gallery of some of the best images here. Elliot also noted that you can refine the search in the pool to just London. Not many there yet but hopefully people will take more soon.

Read MoreThis is Roger Lean. He fixed* my Lomo LC-A for the very reasonable price of £40 including recorded postage back. I found out about him via Flickr and there’s lots of very happy people on out there who have had theirs repaired too.
*I use the word “fixed” when actually it was stripped right down and every part checked, lubed, tightened and all put together again, not just the bit that had gone wrong.
If you need your Lomo LC-A fixed then give him a call!

An amazing set of images as usual from the Guardian. Really like the photography they collect for these kind of events.

Strange what people look for!
Read MoreI’ve been following this issue closely for the last few days – mainly via updates from various photographers on Twitter. There seems to have been a fair few reported incidents this week of photographers being harassed by police even after the recently issued guidance to Police and PCSOs.
The good people at PhotographerNotaTerrorist.org have set up a protest for January 23rd. I will definately be going. More details on their blog.
