Will be interesting to can see your pictures for example to make a game of WWI or WWII with original material.

Thanks for the link. It puts a new perspective on history when pictures are looking as crisp as this. A lot of the time we tend to think of people 100 years ago looking strange and being not very advanced - but that seems is down to the low quality images we are used to, with some good quality snaps like these, it don't look all that long ago.

So these were 3 images, one Red, one Green and one blue that were later composited on to each other?

How could the photographer take three images quickly enough to avoid any motion blur on the final image that would be caused movement of clouds etc?

@ddni

You can see the motion blur in the water on one photo, and in some of the kids in another, where there are mismatched colours. For the rest of them, they must've been posed for a relatively long period, as with traditional long exposure black and white photography.

I can see how people can pose for a long time, as for the clouds, he must have picked very calm days!

@ddni

Yep, probably That would also stop people's hair and clothes from flying around the place. Around that time, a normal black and white exposure would've been around 5 seconds, so overall maybe 15 or 20 seconds would've been needed - fairly reasonable on a calm day I guess.
