Ogden, Then and Now

A project originally commissioned for Ogden's 85th birthday celebration.
Tom Montgomery and Jeff Packard

Ogden landscape photographers in the late 1800s and early 1900s had the advantage of open fields and views that weren't blocked by trees. Today, forests have taken over many of the old pastures and shorelines. This series of image pairs attempts to duplicate, as closely as possible, the viewpoint of the original photographer, although, in most cases, this required sending up a small drone (a DJI Phantom 3 was used) to peek over the top of the trees.

The images show the "Then" photos; click on the image to see the pair, or use the navigation arrow below to get to the gallery.
