WWII "Ghost" Pictures

Sergei Larenkov has superimposed WWII photographs with modern day photos of the same location to display juxtaposition between the past and the present. Larenkov's effect reminds us of the old time "ghost" pictures in the 19th and early 20th century. The bleeding in the photographs is the most effective, an indiscernible way to separate the past from the present. Check out the photos here on his blog, which is in Russian.
