Venice Street, Anfield, 1974 in 2013 Blended

Still learning the ropes of Photoshop, and this took absolutely yonks, so I hope it looks ok - trying for a sort of 'remembered ghost town' look here! A street party to celebrate Liverpool FC's F.A.Cup win in 1974, but sadly that whole happy looking street has now (quite recently, I think) been demolished. All these photos can also be seen on my Facebook page... www.facebook.com/LiverpoolThenAndNow Please feel free to add any comments, corrections, additional info or memories you may have…
