Look carefully at the picture below. What you are looking at is an image from Antietam following the bloodiest single-day battle in United States history. That image is superimposed with an image from the same angle, taken just this year. The little white church building has been rebuilt since the original one was destroyed in 1921. These images are posted on The Guardian website. It's an interesting article, and the pictures there include "sliders", with which you may toggle back and forth from original Civil War photos to photos from 2015. I spent several minutes looking at every aspect of each picture to see how much things change and how much things stay the same after 150 years. Check it out for yourself.
