I just returned home to California after completing a fun photography project in Europe.
I took 13 scanned old photos of me from 30 years ago and went to see if I could find the same exact locations to take photos of what I look like now. I hope to return again in another thirty years!
To see the entire Then and Now photos go to my video on Youtube.

Always glad to see a place looks greener (more vegetation/trees) than 30 years ago. The opposite is happening in my city :(

It's amazing how 30 years later the locations are basically identical to the past, preserving the original architecture and respecting urbanism criteria... In my country, in the 30 years later pics (and next to the beautiful sights and nice biuldings) there would be department buildings, fast food chains, pollution, whole less trees, advertising signs, something on fire and probably people clashing with the police :(
Yeah but these are "touristy" spots :) I dare say if you went a few miles out of town you would see the difference 30 years makes!
It's pretty neat how the locations are timeless and haven't changed over the years. The differences are the vehicles and clothes. Other locations might be taken over by skyscrapers or Walmarts.
I think this was a really cool idea. It was really interesting to see, thank you for posting.
