Time is an odd concept that takes its toll on everyone and everything in the world. No one can stop time and no one can make the way it affects things truly disappear. After enough time, anything will change in some way, shape, or form. Time can be scary, but time can also be kind of cool. It is interesting to look back and compare images to see just how much and in what ways things have changed over time. Whether it be 10 years or 100 years, things change constantly.

Pictures hold a lot of memories. Many people have tons of photos from their childhoods and from important moments growing up and maturing. Photographs are sentimental and irreplaceable. Going back and looking at old photos can trigger some major nostalgia for some folks. One fun thing some people have done is taken old photos and recreated them in the modern day to really compare what has changed.

Here, we have collected 25 images people have shared where they recreated a photo from the past. Some of these are silly, some interesting, and others a little heartbreaking. Enjoy this montage of photos then and now.
