The original Photos from Alternate Worlds, started by Tetsu in 2005, was one of the first major threads on AH.com to deal with "media from alternate worlds" as its premise. After more than 12 years (!), that thread reached the end of its life with nearly 500 pages of content and has been closed. It's time to start anew...

Here's a new thread to continue that simple, but interesting premise. Use it well, guys and gals.

Have fun and show off your talents !

A few quality guidelines, to avoid people posting random, non-AH junk:
- post photos and images that could convincingly pass as actual alternate history.
- photoshopped, hand-drawn, etc. works of your own are highly welcomed, especially if they're of good quality and fit the scenario described.
- you can post illustrations in addition to photos, but they should be of the same "this could convincingly pass for something from an ATL" standard of quality.
- no contemporary politics and no posting of memes or random pictures that you find funny. This isn't an "amusing stuff I found" thread, it's a thread to show off your creativity and skills at creating images from alternate universes. Also, no "edgy", questionable, or blatantly extremist content of any kind. (Should go without saying.)
- you can post stuff from realistic, hard-plausibility timelines/universes, as well as more fantastical universes. Just always be mindful there has to be a clear AH element in it. Random science fiction or fantasy pictures won't count as AH, unless you include some visual element or good explanation of why they're AH or part of some wider multiverse of timelines.
- if you find something from OTL that looks oddly AH, maybe this thread would be more appropriate.
