Sergei Mikhailovich Prokudin-Gorskii was a photographer to the Tsar during the turn of the Century.
Using a black and white camera, he devised a way to take [pictures in color[rURL1], using a red, blue and green filter. The photos would be fantastic if there were in black & white, but in color they’re simply stunning.
I can’t go on enough about the amazing stuff that can be found here. Even on how he put together the camera to make the color photos is ingenious. Go and enjoy. This site is pure pleasure. (link via MetaFilter)
