10 Fascinating Recently Discovered Photographs History Photo lists are my favorite to read and write about, so I’m always trying to think of new subject matter for a photo list that would complement the others on the site. Recently my brother discovered some old pictures of our grandfather. We never knew they existed, and it gave me the idea for this list. This list looks at some rare and hopefully interesting photographs that were uncovered in recent years along with descriptions of the photos and how they were discovered. Taken: 1925Discovered: 2005 In 2005 the Smithsonian Institution announced that it had some never-before published pictures of the Scopes Monkey Trial which was dubbed “The Trial of the Century,” The negatives were discovered after looking through archival material donated to the Smithsonian back in 1971. Interesting Fact: One explanation of why this picture was never published at the time is that the trial ended the next day, and Scopes was found guilty.

Top 40 des photos géniales de tournage de films cultes Vous ne saurez vous contenter d'un bon film. Non, il vous en faut toujours plus : bêtisiers, making-of et autres éléments "behind the scenes" (dans l'envers du décor). Voir les comédiens en costume de monstres discuter tranquillou un verre à la main, voir le réalisateur déconner en arrière plan avec l'actrice principale, c'est quand même assez chouette, et presque même familial.

21 Photos Of Nature Winning The Battle Against Civilization You might have to plant the flowers in your backyard to see some green action, but plants will grow from just about anywhere if you give them enough time. If you abandoned your home today and returned many years later, you might find trees growing right out of your bedroom walls, and plants the size of beanstalks shooting straight up out of your floorboards. Plants are incredibly resilient, and can grow from the most unlikely places so long as they have a source of sun and water. These man-made objects, buildings, and entire cities are no match for the rapid growth of plant life. Check out these unbelievable photos of nature wining the battle against civilization. The Bicycle Tree This bicycle now permanently belongs to a tree on Vashion Island in Washington. The After Life of a 160-Year-Old Railway Located in Paris, this old railway was long ago abandoned, allowing the beauty of nature to grow and prosper in place of humans.

500 Photographers Sanctuary of Ruin: Touring Western Australia's Piano Graveyard, by Jason Cotter : Articles : Terrain.org by Jason Cotter Legend has it that when an elephant becomes aware its own death is imminent, it leaves the herd and travels alone to a final resting place known by instinct, an arched cathedral of bleached bones and ivory known as the elephant graveyard. Here all past elephants have converged, creating a reverent repository of sorts. The graveyard is thought apocryphal but some facets of the myth ring true: elephants do venerate the bones of their dead, especially the ivory, carrying the tusks about or gently rolling them back and forth beneath their sensitive feet. The myth conjures a mysterious place, heavy with memory and metaphor, where one might ruminate on lost things, the majesty of life, and the inevitability of ruin. As I slow for a discreet turnoff just short of York at the fringe of Western Australia’s wheat belt 80 kilometers east of Perth, I might have similar notions in mind if it weren’t for my anticipation. Then a piano. Perhaps a few find what they are looking for.

He Was a 98-Year-Old Veteran. A Picture Taken of Him Just One Day Before Death Has Moved America. Americans nationwide reacted to a now-viral photo of a 98-year-old veteran who, too ill to attend the annual Veterans Day celebrations last week, asked that he be dressed in his uniform. Justus Belfield was too weak to leave his bed, but The Daily Gazette of Schenectady reported that he has worn his uniform every Veterans Day since he and his wife moved to a nursing home in upstate New York several years ago. It was the last time Belfield, who passed away early Wednesday morning, ever wore his uniform. “I could see him breathing, and I leaned down and I looked at him and I said, ‘Happy Veterans Day. Thank you for your service,’” Christine Camp, who works at the home, recalled. Belfield’s response, pictured below, will never be forgotten: This Nov. 11, 2014 photo provided courtesy of Nancy McKiernan of Baptist Health Nursing and Rehabilitation Center in Glenville, N.Y., shows 98-year-old World War II veteran Justus Belfield saluting on Veterans Day.
