Eye-Opening Photos Juxtapose Images of Present-Day and WWI-Era Europe

My Modern Metropolis - This year marks the 100th anniversary of the start of World War I, the conflict that not only reshaped Europe, but also fundamentally transformed the world and international power structures. Over 16 million soldiers and civilians were killed and more than 20 million wounded, making WWI one of the deadliest conflicts in history. To commemorate the war's centennial, Scottish photographer Peter Macdiarmid created a fascinating series of images that superimpose photos taken during WWI on top of photos of the same modern-day locations.
