20+ Before & After Pics Showing How The World Has Changed Over Time By Re.Photos
5.3Mviews
We are a group of people who love re-photographies (“before and after”, “then and now”) because of their potential to tell fascinating stories with just two pictures. There wasn’t really a central hub for this kind of art so we got to work and built re.photos. It’s a website that enables people to browse hundreds of pictures or upload and align their own.
#2 Seljestadjuvet, Odda, Norway, 1887 - 2014
#3 Martin Luther Statue, Dresden, Germany, 1958 - 2014
There are probably some crazy before and after photos of Dresden related to the war.
#5 Quai Des Nations, Paris, France, 1900 - 2017
The before had beautiful buildings , but the fact that there are trees there now makes me feel it's changed for the good .
#6 Corner Of Ratajczaka And Św. Marcin Streets, Poznań, Poland, 1945 - 2017
It's corner of Ratajczaka and Św. Marcin Streets. "Skrzyżowanie" means "crossroads" in Polish. :)
#7 Pripyat, Ukraine, 1986 - 2016
Context: Top photo is shortly before the Chernobyl meltdown (this is the nearby town where the employees and their families lived).
#9 Engabreen Glacier, Norway, 1889 - 2010
Axel Lindahl’s picture of Engabreen from 1889 shows the foot of the glacier, where there was only ice, glacial gravel, water and bare mountainsides in a seemingly cold and hostile landscape. Now, more than 120 years later, the valley has become far more fertile. Birch forest, shore meadows, willow thickets and marshland have established themselves, while the glacier arm has retreated far back up the mountainside.
#10 Moulin Rouge, Paris, France, 1900 - 2016
The first picture is definitely not from 1900. Judging by the cars, it was taken around 1930. This is what the place actually looked like in 1900, before a fire destroyed the building in 1915: Moulin-Rouge-1.jpg

And they say global warming is not real.. smh.
I believe global warming is real I just don't think we can do anything about it, no different then trying to stop an ice age probably can't be done.
Der r more green in latest pic den the previous.
Glaciers recede it's what they do has nothing to do with global warming
I believe you may need to do a little more research on what causes that.
Art is subjective and those pictures spoke to me. What's the point in buildings when our planet and animals on it are dying?

You saw all of these and all you came away with was a message about global warming?
Um, did you see how much that glacier melted?
So many of these seem to demonstrate a lack of change.
