crazy to think that guy has been on that boat for over 100 years
He clearly switched boats.
Boat of Theseus
No boat would live that long…
Wow, it looks so much prettier today. All thanks to climate improvement.
Thank goodness they cleared out all that snow and ice so that we can finally see the pretty mountains.
We should put some factories there!
This might be silly but we could replace the ice with trash?
Already working on it, my dudes.
yeah but it’s much more colorful now. that’s good, isn’t it?

I myself asked “What time of year was the lower photograph taken?” Then I realized I was being dumb, because if either photo was taken in winter time, we would see at least some ice in the water, if not a very large ice sheet.
That, and it’d be dark. You’d need to pack one hell of a flash.
Good luck, everyone. I genuinely hope you make it through as okay as you can.
people 107 years ago loved sepia filters.
New real estate!
Oprah buying up development rights on the coastline there too?
Notice the first guy is in a wooden boat and the second guy is in a boat most likely made out of some plastic-based fibers. 🤔
This is wild 🫨
air is probably cleaner now than it was then
Elaborate?
go read a historybook on the industrial revolution
That would make the air… less clean now?
Edit: looks like PM2.5 and PM10 levels were 10-100x more around a hundred years ago. Seems like air quality is in fact better now.
ah to have seen the raw undisturbed beauty earth once had…

I mean anyone is free to try their hand at reproducing it better, I’m sure the spot hasn’t changed that much since the modern one here was taken, and if it has, well it’ll just make the comparison that much more dramatic.
Yes, let’s focus on that.
The motorized boat is an accurate representation of how things are today.
