New York Now and Then: 1870s vs Today

I like how the present photographer stood in almost the exact same spot as the historical photographers. It really puts the images into perspective.

[@oldgordo61]

I totally agree.

[@tulatularosa]

I am a lifetime historian and I must admit that I never really considered how much Brainerd contributed to early photography. I am also a lifelong equestrian and believe a then and now picture with all the myriad of draught animals that once provided the motive power for such a marvelous city, would be absolutely wonderful. I live on a ranch in rural New Mexico and most of my daily chores are not any different from the 1880s. I realize how truly foreign this seems whenever I talk with more urban dwellers. You know how amazed folks are with your time travel, amaze them a bit more with horses, fancy carriage turnouts, goat-drawn Governess carts, milk boys with dog, pulled sleds. etc. etc. You can't really go back in time, but there are an amazing amount of folks who still evoke an earlier time in the present, and they aren't aren't all Amish and named Yoder! thanks

It's so great that photography was invented in the 19th century. It gives us a final glimpse into a way of life that had existed for hundreds of years but was rapidly disappearing.

[@darrellborland119]

@bgarr99...the photographers of that era, particularly AJ Russell of the UP, Alfred Hart of CPRR, and Charles Savage of SLC, labored under difficulties we can only imagine and contemplate in wonderment. When we study the collodian wet-plate technique, juxtaposed with primitive conditions out West, A.J. Russell in particular, comes across as a superb, tenacious, technician. His large format exposures are masterpieces. They were rediscovered in the 1950's and later. Barry Colms, and the Oakland Museum in 1969, in celebration of the 100th anniversary of the "Wedding of the Rails", published a book of A.J's photos in their original format, with descriptions. It's title is "Westward to Promontory", and is readily available. Another book, recently written, is Daniel Davis' "Across the Continent", a deep dive into Andrew Russell and his life. A good and fascinating read into a frontier photographer's life, and travails. Thanks.

My favorite thing to do with these kinds of videos is to look at the trees and see how big some have gotten.

[@hopethiscanhelp2166]

This video is outstanding! It is an inspiration for myself as I'm collecting information to do a video of this kind. When I see all the thumbs down, I have no choice but remember my beloved grandmother when used to say: "The only place where the majority of the people will say good things about you, it's at the funeral home..."

The music is so soothing ☺️😌

Tom Shea lol!

why So SERIOUS? It’s by Claude Debussy

[@leo32190]

Clair de lune by Debussy

[@ablankjournal5244]

I beg to differ. It's so loud, the press on the keys are rough, and doesn't match with the tone of the video.

[@markg999]

Cool seeing the trees so young in some of those shots.

[@2jzfrank]

What really amaze me is that some of those trees are still here 😮

These buildings and places already existed, from past civilizations and past resets... you don't believe the horse-buggy-man holding a shovel was able to build with that perfection, eh?! Yep... in 1.800 they were going far-west, living in mud/hay/sticks houses... so congrats! You are now awake and ready to research about mudfloods, classical and tartarian styles... from the known past civilizations. Drop all the his-story you may think you know, it is all a lie. Look for the truth!

[@BrooklynPerson30000]

this is great, but the old shots are too short

[@Alexander-tj2dn]

[@jordanliles]

[@sk8pie776]

Drunk Liker No not really racism was at an time high with several black people being hunted down and lynched, illness and diseases were the most common killer as there wasn’t really cures back then, conscription would force you to go to war if there was one. I don’t think you know how lucky you actually are

[@wal7]

No life is much easier now, life was rough back then, ww1,ww2, slavery

[@carollambies4281]

Not so simple you you had a monster husband beating you and knocking you up 14 times. Poor Great Grandma .And no novacain.

[@lesliekendall5668]

That was SO AMAZING! I could watch them all day. Would've liked it a bit slower on the black and whites, though. Thanks!
