100 year old color photos from Russia = awesome

Between 1907 and 1915 a guy named Sergei Mikhailovich Prokundin-Gorski (the royal photographer for Tsar Nicholas II) took the following photographs – in color. He came up with a concept of taking three photos – he took three consecutive photographs of his subjects with three separate filters: red, green, and blue. He then combined them into full-color projections.
