Here's a little rollover I made showing what my old stomping ground
looks like today.
If you roll your mouse over the pic you'll see what it looked like 60
years ago.

I'd be very interested in seeing that as well.

The only thing that you'd be interested in is placing your mouth on some

Your rollover technique is like your politics. Needs some work. The photog
is very good but the technique and analysis are lacking (as in your
politics)

I'm sure that you'll give us an example of your rollover technique so
that we'll see that you aren't talking out of your ass....like you do
in politics.

The golf course in the modern photo is the big brown patch right in the
middle just this side of the sewage plant (the big silver thingy). The
parking lot and clubhouse of the course can be seen next to the road at
the right of the pic.
Of course, the golf course didn't yet exist in 1946. It was built in
1965, shortly after the mental hospital seen at the bottom of the pic.
I showed my ex-boss this pic and he told me that when the course was
built in 1965 you could stand on the 14th tee (next to the river) and
look straight over and see the mental hospital. Nowadays, it's all
woods and all you can see are trees and the mountain when you look back
toward where I took the pic.

Some of the trees seen in the 1946 pic still exist and are quite huge.
In fact, there is one on the 17th hole that was probably there when the
Indians inhabited these parts. The land where the golf course now sits
used to be a farm owned by the family of a friend of mine. He told me
that they were all the time digging up arrowheads and stuff.

Nice work on finding the exact spot and overlaying it onto the old
picture. It's neat to see how the bend of the river in the middle/top
left has changed over the years.

That's a great bit! I'm not sure how it's done, but the effect is
wonderful!
Crazy what time will do. I look at pictures from the 40's in the Dallas area
and I can't believe it's the same place that I know today. Hell, I drive by
places in the Dallas area that couldn't possibly be the same physical
location that I remember from my misspent youth. Everything is so
different!
One major difference from your pictures: there's a lot more trees at PM now
than in days gone by. Quite the opposite in these parts. Too bad.
Have ya thought about photoshopping the colors to match in the two photos
(e.g. the river water, the sky, the forefront foliage on the left bank,
etc.)? That would make an already startling effect even more dramatic.

It's called a reduction in famland. A variation on the urban sprawl problem
here.
The photo work was very interesting though.
