19th Century Travel - Airplanes

With the implementation and introduction of commerical use airplanes, citizens, at a very costly price, were able to travel to certain parts of the world, to experience a diverse collection of cultures, monuments, religions and race of people. these people at first, travelled for business reasons or the idea of arriving at a destination faster. Gradually people began to travel for leisure and to experience foreign places previosuly unreachable by airplane, and reached at a much faster rate. Typical photos included that of countrysides, buildings, rituals, and of people that the certain country contained. These photos were either in black or white or sepia tone, as obviously the digital era of photography had not quite begun yet.
