this is very sad and nerdy of me to say but all of these photos remind me of Fall Out >.>

 

Not at all, the bridge picture definetly reminded me of fallout 3.

Charles Weever Cushman, amateur photographer and Indiana University alumnus, bequeathed approximately 14,500 Kodachrome color slides to his alma mater. The photographs in this collection bridge a thirty-two year span from 1938 to 1969, during which time he extensively documented the United States as well as other countries.

 

damn...
