Taking a second look at everyday things

Illustrator Tineke Meirink creates an alternative reality by taking photos of everyday things that don't normally deserve a second look and adding her own twist. The results are surprising and amusing.

Interesting old photos

A very creative way to keep dry during some floods in Paris, 1924.


Back in 1929, somebody designed wooden swimming costumes for added buoyancy.


Here are some strange competitions of the 1930's: pretty ankles in England, and lovely eyes in Florida.



A "lightweight" personal, portable TV set, from 1967.


Finally, in 1983, a black policeman protects a certain individual from an angry crowd. A case of white lives matter?
