Meanwhile - back in reality

The photographs taken on December 14 and 17, 1903, were shot using Orville Wright’s “Series V Korona” dry-plate camera. The images used in this article were taken from the Library of Congress collection of Wright brothers negatives and are free of copyright restrictions; the images were cropped and enlarged, with improved levels, contrast and brightness, but were otherwise unaltered, with spots, scratches and other imperfections left intact.
