History Thru The Lens

Welcome to my blog site!

My interests in history and photography come together in this photoblog. Featured in this blog are historical pictures such as the above photo of the RMS Olympic and her sister ship the RMS Titanic, which would prove to be the last one of them together side by side. Hopefully all who visit will enjoy it and recommend the site to their friends.

NOTE:
You may click any picture in this blog to view it on its' own screen.

Haight Ashbury

Jerry Garcia of the Greatful Dead, stands at the intersection of Haight and Ashbury Streets in San Francisco in 1966. Home to 150,000 hippies during the counterculture revolution of the 60's, several of Garcia's band members resided in a commune on Ashbury Street.
