This collection of photographs was made by holding an old photo of an area over the area today and taking a new picture. The idea is pretty amazing as you get to see how areas have changed over the years as buildings are renovated and shops change. It's even more interesting seeing the parts that have stayed the same and seeing how they have aged.
You would think that living in a fairly "new" city such as Dubai would mean that this project wouldn't work but the city has grown at a ridiculous rate and even photos of certain areas from 3 or 4 years back would show a massive change. The historical aspect may not be there but it would be interesting to compare the development like this! http://www.flickr.com/photos/jasonepowell/sets/72157613841045343/
