Black and white processing of a photo of the Arch of Sixtus V in Rome Italy. Though the arch can be seen a modern street with cars but bordered with ancient Roman walls.

Indeed! I well remember the days of rolls of #blackandwhite #film loaded into a #Kodak #Brownie #camera.

That gave you 8 pictures which you had to choose carefully as the whole roll would have to last a week, and you wouldn't see the results, grainy 3" x 2" prints, till after you got home and had taken the film to be developed at the local chemists shop.

Typical examples from my early teenage years at:

Not sure what you would have seen on the video, but the #Litchfield #Canal project is fascinating. Back when a new #motorway was built round #Birmingham the builder was forced to provide an #aqueduct in anticipation of the #volunteers #raisingfunds to rebuild the canal. It sits in mid-air to this day. I drive under it regularly. Read more at:
