Rephotographing Eugene Atget's photos of Paris. I wanted to do this someday.
This is one of the first rephotographing projects I've ever seen where almost nothing has changed.
plenty o' parking back then
I wonder if long exposure times rendered people invisible in the older shots?
Probably not original, but still interesting. Although I think the original shots are better. There seems to be a lot of haze/fog in the background of the originals. Think that's the camera or the environment?
