1894 - Social chat of old times, 49 Camp, California Midwinter Exposition

Being at the expo, I’m assuming this is a staged shot.  Still pretty cool, a lot of character I think.

1876 - Colossal hand and torch Liberty

1876 - Colossal hand and torch "Liberty"

The French planned for the statue to be completed and presented to the United States on July 4, 1876, but a late start and subsequent delays prevented it. However, by that time the right arm and torch were completed. This part of the statue was displayed at the Centennial Exhibition in Philadelphia, where visitors were charged 50 cents to climb the ladder to the balcony. The money raised this way was used to start funding the pedestal. [source: wiki]

I like the way the night shots turn out in the animations.  I think because they’re more simplistic, there’s less to distract the eye, the lines are clearer.
