Looking Into the Past: Carvel Hall, Annapolis, MD

This is now the Paca House & Garden. The length of the old car vs. the length of the SUV behind this shot is pretty telling. Cars back then were SMALL.

Original image taken in 1920, courtesy of the Library of Congress.

brilliant idea would be cool if you use a small soft light source to illuminate the hand and picture! as some of the shots are way under lit in the foreground
