Re: 198 January Comp 2018

The image in the top right hand corner ("AFTER") is a composite which I called "First Class Male". It was made from four separate images (the "BEFORE"): - A stone wall and road, taken in Billinge (and I haven't saved this image for some reason - so apologies for that) -...
