Old photos

I've been looking at pictures of Timaru harbour, and came across this old plate.



At first look, its just a run of the mill internet picture.
However once you start scanning in, it just gets better and better.
 (if you have a slower connection, just wait and the detail will appear. sort of like Google maps)
The details on the wharf and the dredges are just amazing (I can make out the signs on the wharf).  Will digital photos be this good in 100 years?

That is a lovely scene. Are you going to model it?
