36 Colorized Historical Photos Make the Past Seem Incredibly Real

“A new artistic trend has broken out around the world which changes our perception of history dramatically. Colorizing historic photographs from the late 1800′s and early 1900′s changes their appearance from something historic and different, into a scene from today. The colorful image of Albert Einstein sitting beside the water gives us an entire new perspective on the genius. He goes from a brilliant historic relic, into a living brilliance of our era. The colorized photograph of Audrey Hepburn transforms our thoughts of beauty. Her photo goes from an intriguing historic photo to one of a sexy starlet of today.”

Moon Shining At Sunset: Marina Bay Sands Resort in Singapore

“This sunset shot at the Marina Bay Sands was one in a million.   The sky lit up just right as the moon was rising behind the resort. Many people don’t know but the resort is an actual complex complete with a shopping  mall, casino, and a Venice Gondola ride. One of the cool things about the Marina Bay Sands Resort besides the amazing infinity rooftop pool is the fact that you can use your hotel Wi-Fi throughout the entire shopping complex. The picture was taken from the famous Merlion statue just across the water from the resort.  This also happens to be where the cars zip by in the only night time Formula 1 race.”

102-year-old woman parachutes from Idaho bridge

“Dorothy Custer celebrated turning 102 on Sunday by parachuting from a bridge in Idaho. For her 101st birthday last year, Custer zip-lined over the Snake River Canyon. This year, however, she told KMTV that she had planned to have a ‘very calm birthday.’  But those plans changed when her family gave her a tandem jump with professional BASE jumper, Sean Chuman, for her birthday. In BASE jumping — which stands for Buildings, Antennas, Spans, and Earth — participants jump off of platforms and then parachute to the ground.  ‘That was a thrill,’ Custer says just after landing. ‘But it was so quick! It was over with before I knew it.’ ‘There’s nothing much left to do but just live now,’ she explains.”

Just, You Know, Mexico: A Sort Of Photo Essay

“People seeming to have an interest in Mexico and the desperate, blood-soaked lives we live here, Average beach, Micnoacàn, at sundown. Fred, dissolute as a matter of principle, supervises waves with a cold Tecate. To get here, you drive north from Ajijic to Guadalajara, turn left until you hit the Pacific coast at Manzanillo, turn left again, and find hundreds, perhaps thousands or millions, of miles of deserted beaches. We stay in a little town with one hotel of four rooms, one of them a suite, of about two stars, with chickens cackling in the yard and no gringos, cackling or otherwise.”
