NatGeo's "Found" archives - pretty awesome

Quote: "Along with earning a reputation for publishing some of the world’s finest photojournalism over the years, National Geographic has accrued a backlog of unpublished photos as vast as the Kalahari. To mark the Yellow Box’s 125th birthday this year, its editors launched a Tumblr to highlight some of its otherwise forgotten images.

Found is Nat Geo’s productivity-killing photostream, drawn from its sprawling archive of unpublished vintage prints."

Wow, just ... wow. Thanks for the link. There are some amazing pictures in that collection; they offer an insight to time and places of old. Amazing, and these are the shots that didn't make the cut! Thanks again, this link is most certainly a "keeper".
