Hi, I'm new here so please be patient.I've arrived at the suggestion of Paul, who runs Liberator38.co.uk.
He has kindly given me permission to use his images for a project I've started.The idea of re-photography is to get an old photo with recognisable details then take the scene again today.You then combine the 2.Hopefully I'll have uploaded a couple images to give you the idea.OK, I've uploaded 2 images but don't have a clue were they are.Hopefully you can find them and let me know what you think.

Is that not the junction of Grove Road & Warren Drive by the roundabout in front of The Wallaseans Club?

Thanks, hadn't seen Retronaut, I got the idea from Sergey Larenkov....

http://www.mediadump.com/hosted-id90-the-ghosts-of-world-war-ii.html

Would like to do this type of thing but we haven't had a war in Wallasey, unless anyone has some identifiable Blitz Damage images ?
