Goin' Down, Down, Down

The capsule is now resting 60 meters underground.  Marcus Erixson
We're not talking coal mine here (see below for connection!), but it's close enough. A copper mine in Sweden is now the repository of a time capsule containing all the "A Day in the World" photos that were sent in to aday.org last May (see "Picture Your Life on May 15," May 2012). For links to an online collection of some of the photographs, see "Around the World in 100,000 Shots," Oct. 2012 (story, slideshow, video): http://www.aday.org/news/2013-03-28/falun-copper-mine
