"Jason Powell

came up

with a photo series

4sdfghc

where he takes old photographs

5fjhgu

of public places,

6njkfhuk

prints them out

7nkfd

and then overlaps them

8ujirf

over the same image,

in the present day."

Powell writes that

he was inspired by

Michael Hughes' Souvenirs.

I love the idea. I can't help but suspect they are photoshopped, the overlaps are just too perfect, but I just love the idea anyway. Just finding all those locations...
