Thank you Marco for sharing this beautiful and interesting pictures .
The beauty of then and now pictures I find myself is ,that history comes back to life. If time has stood still in that specific picture(s), and today the location sometimes is exactly te same as then.

periodical. Thanks for the great comparison shots.
