D-Day, then and now

Some pretty impressive photos from the Guardian today.  Can't believe how well these have been matched up.

I found the first one, of the harbour in Weymouth, particularly striking as it's a place I know really well, having grown up nearby, and a view that my grandparents would have been very familiar with at the time.  The Lifeboat is even in the same spot (albeit a bit more modern these days).
