Rephotographing Route 66: Animated GIFs Showing 1930-1970 Scenes Compared to Today

Route 66 is a famous highway that crosses the United States, connecting Santa Monica, California on the west with Chicago, Illinois toward the east. It was one of the original highways of the US Highway System.

The route is also the subject of a project by photographer Natalie Slater, titled “The Mother Road Revisited.” Slater found old photos of the route from decades ago and rephotographed them as they appear today.

Sometime in the near future I plan on driving the whole length of Route 66. I’ve driven portions of it here and there but never the whole length. I just need to come up with some new and creative idea that hasn’t been done before to photograph my journey.

This is a disturbing twist at Tumblr. Something very strange is happening. I began fearing Tumblr was becoming a lair of fraudulent activity &/or the desperate black hole of the perverse.

I log in on my Tumblr and find that in 17 days in a row, I am being followed by 23 scantily clad women ...none of them have posts, not a single piece of content. Uhhhhhmmm...my Tumblr is as wholesome as can be...you know, cute little ducks and country life?

Anyone else has this surreal thing going on in their Tumblr account? What the heck is going on???

(By the way, I'm not Zendaya lol...just borrowing her image, her expression aptly expresses what I feel)
