Pictures this old are brilliant
Do you hear the people sing...
Seems they tore up the cobbles and built that first one. Nice.
Are the streets really empty, or were there people in the frame but their motion renders them invisible, as you have to stand still for a daguerrotype?
- I mean there seems to be people silhouettes there in the picture
They rise heads up, heads up, heads up, they rise heads up, heads up high!
There’s no picture.
- I see it
- You may have to click on it to enlarge it to see. There's been some Federation troubles as of late.
  
  Tapping does nothing
So cool.
