Photography can be used to make oneself at home in a place, frame shots and look for spots, and get to see the familiar anew in the process.
Here, I took things a step further and added the dimension of time – which is not so unusual a thing, given our interest in historical photographs and illustrations – in such a way as for it to appear in the modern view…

Gerald, what software did you use to create these images? These are REALLY cool.

An old version of Photoshop, just using a few of the adjustment options and different opacity.
Thanks a lot for the comment; I do rather like the images but haven’t ever got feedback before – seems one of those things where something would have to be posted directly to Facebook et al, but I don’t want to give them my photos ;)
