 Page Through from Before to After

In the past four years, I've posted a heck of a lot of photos of Near Southeast on this site. (Though it's only a fraction of the number of photos I've taken of Near Southeast in the past four years.) As projects move forward, I tend to continue to display the oldest photos of a location but then pair them with newer photos as the landscape changes. The photos that "age off" a project page are still on my site, they're just not easily visible--until now, thanks to the new Near Southeast Photo Archive. You can either use this map to choose an intersection and compass direction to view ("show me all pictures at New Jersey and M looking northward"), or you can watch for the new Click to see all available photos of this location. icon now available throughout the project pages, which you can click on to see the archive of all photos at that particular location (like, say, South Capitol and P Street looking east-northeastward, which provides you with a pretty cool month-by-month photo timeline of the stadium construction). Be sure to read all my caveats detailing the many ways that this app isn't perfect, but I've always struggled with a way to harness the bazillion photos on the site without making the project pages any more unwieldy than they already are, and I think this is a good step; and I may now start to upload more photos even if they don't make it onto a project page, just to flesh out some intersections that aren't well represented on the site. Again, look for the Click to see all available photos of this location. icon to access the archive, and let me know what you think.
