Great B/W photography from the past--The Mike Disfarmer Project

[japple]

I first read about Mike Disfarmer in the Old Farmer's Almanac in an article titled "The Man Who Shot Everyone in Town."
This very interesting story can be found at the site linked below. There is a gallery of his photographs as well.
His pictures of children are especially compelling.
