1900-1920 - To Sinai via the Red Sea, Tor, and Wady Hebran. Interior of the church seen from the apse. Monastery of St. Catherine.
This one would no doubt be a better animation with the outer edges of the door cropped, however I was impressed with the images painted around it, so they stay!

I’ve always enjoyed seeing images of scenes now and then, and in fact hope to take a trip to Charleston before winter to do the same with some old Civil War images. Sergey Larenkov has used this technique and added a twist, creating ghost-like images by overlaying parts of old images over the new. The results are surreal and striking, I urge you to check out his blog here.
