Photo of the Day: March 9, 2009

2009_0309_potd.jpg

This looks like a fun project for history and photography buffs alike. Flickr user jasonepowell is taking old photos and finding the location at which they were shot and, as you can see, overlaying them for a whole new image. You can see the original photo he's using in the Library of Congress' Flickrstream. EXIF.

Cool photo, and really cool idea for heightening the level of historical awareness of our environs...

I want a picture of monkeyrotica putting on his lipstick ... "She's a Lady. Whoa whoa whoa, she's a Lady."

Here ya go. It's from my triumphant return to the stage as Sancho Panza in "Man of la Mancha" which the "Bristol Evening Post" described as "a glittering performance of rare perception."

Great. Thanks. Monkey. Now I need to call my therapist. I know, I know. I asked for it.

Wow, this picture is AWESOME! Such a unique idea, very place-out-of-time.
