re-photographing

From a  recent return to an old site  in the Waitpinga bushland in the Fleurieu Peninsula in April, 2026  ire-photographing a particular tree.  Rephotography (ie., repeat photography) is the act of photographing  the same site twice, with a time lag between the two images; a diachronic, "then and now" view of a particular area. 

This is now: 
This is more a different interpretation than the traditional form of re-photrogaphing, which is to set up a camera at the original viewpoint, at approximately the right season and time, and wait with the original view in hand, until the shadows reach the same positions relative to surrounding objects.
