Yes, there has been a few photography posts of late. Why? I took up the pastime, is why. This week in fact, I got serious and bought a Pentax K20D, along with a couple lenses. Yay.
Now, back to the headline that probably got you reading this in the first place. The Library of Congress has a Flickr Account, check it out here, for some pretty awesome early century (mostly) rights free photographs. If you follow the “Persistant URL” found in the comments of each photo, you’ll find a link to the archival TIFF file, very print worthy. Of course, they are just cool to browse too.
