Title: Put your VW photo archives in the 2012 context
Post by: Mach1 on May 14, 2012, 16:10:45 pm
I directly thought about our Volkswagens when I first saw the web-based project "http://dearphotograph.com/" by canadian artist taylor jones.

His project is about calling for people to 'take a picture of a picture from the past, in the present' by recapturing the sites of old photographs. Each image has a caption
that begins with 'dear photograph,' followed by a memory-- sometimes poignant, often funny-- sharing nostalgic images layered in time.

What do you think about sharing here some nice exemples you could do with nice vw photo archives you own?

People are also invited to submit their own 'dear photographs' by email to dearphotograph@gmail.com

A few exemples:

I'd love to see if I could find that spot where I took the shot of my car against the ivy covered hill that most of you have seen.

I know the area where it was taken but no idea exactly where it was.

I'm not sure the Off-topic forum is the right one to be seen ;)
