As the Greek philosopher, Heraclitus has quoted, “The only constant in life is change.” Everything around us, even us ourselves, are changing continuously. Therefore, changes are not new to us and we basically expect them to happen.
But, despite expecting changes in life, there are still moments that we become amazed at how much change is happening in this world. The only proper evidence to show these changes are before and after photos which show the incredible amount of difference a year, a day, an hour, or even a minute can make.
These 50 before and after photos sum up the usual changes we see but we sometimes take for granted. Read on to find these amazing images of change and prepare to be wowed.
