An avid historian and self-taught photo editor is bringing Bungay's history to life with a stunning project that helps us easily picture the past.
Karen Leah, 62, is the creator of 'Bungay Ghosts', a Facebook page which shows images of Bungay from the past overlaid on top of modern photos, creating an impression of the past coming through to the present.
"I'm kind of obsessed with the past really, I love it," said Mrs Leah, who is also a watercolour artist.
The photos are posted regularly on the Facebook page, and have been exhibited at the Fisher Theatre.
They show the town's historic Market Place, Falcon Meadow, and Butter Cross in the present day, overlaid with some of the most important event from Bungay's past.
"I think of a photo as something a bit magical, it captures a fragment of time," Mrs Leah said.
"I wanted to try and convey a sense of generations of people walking the same streets and using the same shops as their grandparents - it's a crossover between now and then."
From celebrations for the coronation of King George V in 1911, to fundraising events for the First World War in 1916 and simply children playing at the turn of the 20th century - the photos bring to life a history often too easily forgotten.
Mrs Leah said: "Bungay hasn't changed very much, only subtly over the years. The basic architecture has outlasted everything. Businesses, transport, clothing and fashion has changed, but that's all. Horse and carts have turned into cars."
Mrs Leah started the project four years ago, teaching herself how to use photoshop. Since then the Facebook page she created has received more than 500 likes and her work has been exhibited.
"I get the pictures from Bungay museum, Chris Reeves the historian lets me use them, and I scan them into photoshop, print them out and go to the location to take a photo of that spot. Sometimes it's quite difficult.
"The past is a very important thing, you have to learn from the past, it's an illustration that places where you are and where you might be going."
