cofl Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 I'm a long time resident here in WA and i run a page on Facebook that I thought people on here may find interesting. It is purely for reference and in no way am i trying to sell anything !!! it's called Lost Perth Found I find historic photos of Perth and reshoot them exactly today from the same viewpoint, then post them side by side as comparisons and also for some merge the two images for a unique look at then and now. Interesting i hope for current and future residents if you want to see snapshots of the city today Please take a look and like it if you find it interesting. Many thanks.

cofl Posted December 12, 2014 Author Share Posted December 12, 2014 Oh, ok, although I see no logic in that ! Apologies - we don't allow FB links Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cofl Posted December 12, 2014 Author Share Posted December 12, 2014 Trust me when I say the city is much leafier than it ever was. I struggle in many places to get photos of the buildings due to the abundance of trees, predominantly of the London Plane variety ! Love old photos... what a shame that the city planners thought that replacing mature trees with plastic cacti is acceptable!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
