Unusual and very effective idea Jim, great stuff.
Jim Thompson replied:
Thank you David. This was my first attempt at a composite project that I did for a City of Rocklin. It eventually involved close to 50 images that contrasted the old with the new. The old round house was difficult to do as it sat where the park is now. Getting everything in perspective with the "new" was a daunting task. Old images of the round houses that sat on the site are rare. I did a couple of others of portions of the round house composited with contemporary buildings and landscape.
