Eighty-two years ago this very day, the Allied forces stormed Omaha Beach in the turning point of the Second World War. What you might not know is that only eleven photos survive from that attack – and that’s only because a photographer took hundreds of shots, but because someone accidentally used the wrong development technique on the film rolls during development, only a few images could be saved from that battle.
Now that story may be apocryphal, and 82 years is a long time to sort out that kind of mess. But you don’t have to wait 82 years for an updat4e on this week’s blogroll. Let’s start now.
