My Dad says that being a Londoner has nothing to do with where you're born. He says that there are people who get off a jumbo jet at Heathrow, go through immigration waving any kind of passport, hop on the tube and by the time the train's pulled into Piccadilly Circus they've become a Londoner.

Process
I imported a black and white image into Lightroom. I duplicated it twice. On the bottom layer I created a sketch with a darken blending mode, the next layer was the black and white photo with an inverted mask and finally the top layer was adjusted with a black and white photo filter layer where I used the slider to create a blue effect, to this I added a colour burn blending mode and again using an inverted mask I brushed back in various parts of the image.
I created a brush from my sketch of St Pauls Cathedral and positioned it behind my main image and the stamped a brush from the Travel England set over the top of it. I also stamped a smaller image on the left hand side of my canvas with titling and a quote ( as this is going to be in my layouts for 2017 book the quote is in a fairly small sized font so as not to overwhelm the page).
