These two photos were taken approximately 80 years apart. The first was taken in the early 1930s, the second by me with my K-5 in February, 2011. I thought it would be fun to juxtapose the two photos. Not much has changed in 80 years. The old mining town main street looks much the same.

Interesting. It appears the time of day between shots are not the same, (streetlights on).
