LOOKING 4 SOMETHING?

Honestly WTF

Back to the Future

Posted by on

While most people simply admire old photos, Irina Werning is more interested in how people would look and feel if they were to reenact them today. Several years ago, she started to ask people to go back to their past and recreate a moment in time – even down to the exact body positions and facial expressions! I’m so impressed that I am inspired to recreate one of my childhood images . . .

    These are awesome! I’ve seen a few people attempt to do this, but these are the first ones I’ve seen that are actually really well done. Cheers!

    I love this! I may ask my in-laws for some baby pictures of my husband so we can recreate some of our childhood pics as adults. So fun!

    Love it! I’m gonna have to find an old picture of me and my sister that we can re create!

    Those are unbelievably cool. I did the same thing with my youngest daughter, who looked just like me as a child. I took a picture of her in the same place as me, 30 years earlier. It was an awesome thing to do.

    They’ve been doing this at my old high school, in every yearbook, for years now. It’s kind of perfect.

    that is such a cool project! every detail is so precise! i wonder how they got the same wardrobe, wallpaper, setting, everything.

    Am I the only one who finds this just weird and pathetic that people not only want to relive a past photo, but stupid ones at that? Its just dumb.

    Very cute.

    You can find LOTS of stuff like this and much MUCH more arty stuff at my site. :)

    ps Go to the Library to find various sections of interest and TONS of links to all kinds of categories.

    Very cool concepts, a little on the odd side but rarely do I see something new when stumbling. Nice.
