Hey maybe someone can answer this or has had experience with the topic, do people really like to look at shots of historical sites? both known and not so known. I have a lot of sites around my area but they seem boring to me because I see them all the time, d you think this is good subject matter?

maybe i came late but i would like to see some shots for historical sites especialy if they include old buildings with engravings and stuff like that i do not think this is boring look at the historical site and choose the best angles for shooting and maybe you can upload them to archetecture section or maybe ask for a special section for these shots i believe that those shots are important because he who has no past has no future

Different strokes for different folks I guess..I too live in an area that is very historical (Brandywine Valley) with lots to see, I've been in the area for a little over a year and still haven't seen it all. I am a history buff and never get tired of looking and learning. I've spent hours at Hagley Museum just taking in the sites, snapping pictures (over a hundred so far, in just one trip). I personally would be interested in taking a look at what you have taken, and would be more than willing to share my pictures..all in all, I say take as many as you can, there is always someone out there that is interested..

I'd like to borrow a quote from Robert Frost.."two roads diverged in a wood, and I take the road less traveled..' ( I know it's not word for word but you get the idea
