Nick Dewolf Photo Archive

"Nick DeWolf (1928-2006) was an engineer and entrepreneur who founded a company called Teradyne in the USA. In his spare time he was also cataloging his life with a camera. These amazing photos came long before Flickr but thanks to his son-in-law and archivist, Steve Lundeen, we can finally see his deep catalog of photos. So far there are 43,450! "

I once stumbled upon some great feeds on Flickr by another Dewolf - his of really great recent scenes in Hong Kong that captured exactly some of my own experience there. I wonder, maybe a relative. Great - both guys.

Nice ... the year before I got here. Back in the "Hey you, 1 baht" days.

 

The Sanam Luang pics remind me of how filthy it used to be after the weekend market closed. It took the city about 3 days to clean it up before the next opening. And all those bicycles!

Certainly some good images but I wouldn't describe them as "amazing".
