In the brief blinking of a shutter, a moment in time is captured.
We love old photographs. Some pictures and the people in them will always remain a mystery, their faces and surroundings giving little away. Others allow us a more revealing glimpse into a world gone by, from incredible and amazing discoveries we now take for granted to hardships we would find intolerable today; from a snapshot of everyday events—people at work, families at play—to world-changing events that help shape the future.
Life: all in the blink of an eye!
