Cool idea: Re-creating photographic poses from many years ago. This is what photographer Irina Werning has to say:

I love old photos. I admit being a nosey photographer. As soon as I step into someone else’s house, I start sniffing for them. Most of us are fascinated by their retro look but to me, it’s imagining how people would feel and look like if they were to reenact them today... A few months ago, I decided to actually do this. So, with my camera, I started inviting people to go back to their future.

Directions: Set this video to HD/full screen and turn up the volume. Then sit back. If you love the American Southwest, you'll love these images.

As a teenager, she appeared on the cover of National Geographic. That was back in 1985. I remember seeing that front cover back then. Though I didn't remember the articles in that issue, I remembered her portrait vividly. The man who photographed her back in 1985 found her once again in 2002. Her name is Sharbat Gula, and the hard life she had lived since 1985 was apparent with even a quick look into her eyes.
