The Library of Congress regularly posts old photos and articles on Flickr that I find absolutely fascinating. They appear to be full resolution and are free to download. So if you are a history buff, I suggest you check them out. I am so fascinated by photos from the past. Photography is always evolving and changing. There isn’t necessarily a right way or a wrong way to take an image. Capturing history through your eyes. Making it your own. That’s what makes photography so unique and fascinating. Here is an article about the Titanic that they uploaded today:
