Toronto Before
Timera TO
"The world is a giant museum, with its stone buildings, streets, and monuments serving as silent sentries that have seen generations of history unfold. Timera, a new iOS and Android camera app, aims to bring that history right to your mobile device, merging together the past and the present of potentially any place on the planet.
With a massive user-generated database of historical images that are geo-tagged to their proper locations, Timera creates pseudo-historical works of art by blending old photography and modern technology. The results are images that capture the same location in two different eras."
