    These pictures are great. I am really happy that the Library of Congress is doing this.

    Wonderful photo! Ditto, I am happy LC is doing this. I was 1 month old when this was taken, in Illinois to boot, and this scene brings back fond memories. The more railroad pictures you post, the better! Bravo and thank you.
  • Niels Koopmans said:
    What a fantastic serie of beautiful photos. Fantastic that the Library of Congress is doing this. -- Seen on your photo stream. (?)
  • Thomas Hobbs said:
    This is a real treasure of the public domain. I think it is fantastic to make these available through Flickr, the best photo sharing site around. It is a shame they have not uploaded the full resolution images. The LOC's own site will often have 20MB scans of these photos. I've made some beautiful prints of New York's Penn Station from there.

    Thomas, the link to the persistent URL in the description area will take you to a high-resolution version of the image. Good luck!

    Cool it's stereogram. If you merge the two pics like a magic eye picture it becomes 3D.

  • lenstud said:
    its a stereoview, not a stereogram. A stereogram is a single composite 3D (or animated) image that uses a barrier screen to hide the opposing parts of the 3D image from the left and right eyes respectively.

Montagne de Sedour, Tarascon

from Bibliothèque de Toulouse

    I see no depth in this "stereo pair"
  • Necessary Lunch said:
    There is a very small amount of parallax between the views but virtually no 3D effect because the scene has no objects in the foreground. Even so I take my hat off to the pioneers of 3D photography. It's rare that you see a 'dud' like this.
