Newhaven Coastal Echo

Re-photography: Then & Now

‍ ‍

Re-photography is all about capturing the exact same viewpoint from the past and present to show how a place has changed (or stayed the same). Stand in the same place as our ancestors, who were pioneers in early photography. The photos will be shown on the big screen during the Newhaven Maritime Festival on 16th May.
