History Blog
Welcome to my history blog, where I explore various topics, including military history, architectural stories, aviation history, maritime history, significant places, and key historical events. Unless otherwise noted, each article is typically accompanied by my original photography.
Instead of focusing on the technical aspects of photography, my content is inspired by the images I capture, blending my creative interests with a passion for history.
While I don't provide details about the camera settings and equipment used, I'm happy to answer any questions in the comments. Your engagement is encouraged and appreciated.
If you notice any factual inaccuracies, please leave a comment under the post. Accuracy is a priority, and I value your feedback.
PastVu Series #2: Gdańsk, Poland
After exploring Russia’s Valaam in a similar post, I have decided to make this a short series using PastVu, turning my attention to Gdańsk, Poland. Gdańsk, with its layered history and striking contrasts, is a natural fit for the kind of visual time travel I've been exploring. Using the PastVu platform to locate archival images, I recently visited these locations to see what has endured, what has changed, and what those transformations can tell us. Today, the city is filled with tourists and vibrant architecture, making it easy to forget that Gdańsk has lived through destruction and rebirth more than once. Its streets bear the marks of each chapter, and it will tell you a story if you look. This project is not only about capturing those visual shifts but also about understanding the deeper story they reveal.
