I thought this site was quite interesting. Past-present pics of Hitler's Germany, and today.

A great collection of photographs Glasgowken. I've been through lots of them but by no means all of them. Not only are the photographs superb, so also are the texts which accompany them. This American officer who compiled this collection has put an immense amount of work into it. Thank you for metioning this site.

Cheers, dugald.

I took a photo of the Eiffel Tower from Trocadero when I was over there last June. Then I came across a photo last night and I thought "that looks familiar!"

By the way Mods - impressive bit of searching and relevant posting eh?

So here it is, my first ever 3rd Reich past present!!

Interesting pictures Schiehallion, despite the symmetry being a wee bit lop-sided. Little did the man wi' the funny wee moustache know, at the instant the photo was taken, what the future held for him.

Currently under consideration for a wee jaunt next year. It was part of the plan if Scotchland made it to Austria/Switzerland.

That looks like an astonishing place, PK. I always fancied a Luger when I was a kid. Full marks to the writer for sneaking 'tenebrous' and 'conniptions' into an article too.
