This is a selection of some of the most important or
famous historical photographs. Of all the photographs of historical
moments taken around the world, there are some that will forever remain
etched in our memories. I love history, historical moments, historical
place and events. If you love or don’t, you should take a look at these
fascinating and rarely seen photos from the past that take a look at
days gone by from a different angle.

Falls in particular — creating an amazing, naturally-formed ice
sculpture, thickness of 50 feet.
