What to do on a Rainy Day?

When it rains we sometimes don’t get out with the camera especially if you are going through a wimpy phase like me at the moment.  So I took the opportunity to revisit some old ideas.  There are a number of images like this I want to create but this is still a new area for me.  I started with a portrait of the lovely Emma and a photo of some typically dodgy paint work from the Dordogne.  Multiple cloning to prepare the starting image, around 6 layers, several liquefying processes and 4 hours later, this is the result of my self inflicted homework. “Now you see me. Now you don’t!” or should it be called “Chameleon”?
