It seems like 10 years ago someone discovered this method of capturing history and it has captivated me ever since. I just can’t understand how, for example, you find a stone wall on the island of Crete to match it up to a photo from 70 years ago. Even if you lived in Crete it would be tough to do. Great stuff. Thank you!

The most magical and mighty place on the globe and believe me I have seen a lot of places on my 58 years of living.

The Souda Bay photo at 2:17 is a made up photo. Quite famously so. Paratroops never landed there. Why would they? The only airfield, their objective, was Maleme. The airport on Akrotiri had yet to be built. The massed para drop was over Hill 107 from JU52 aeroplanes to capture Maleme airfield. Done years before photoshop was even a dream.
