You can see (I think) a car coming from the left. I remember (1964) hurtling down that road towards a big roundabout where it seemed no-one slowed down as they entered it but everyone seemed to make it out the other side.

When I was writing the post I went back to Google maps so I could find out who to credit for the modern part. Despite hours of searching I just could not find the same image again.

You could mask out individuals. In this image the man would be standing in a bush. So I decided to make it, his view, as even in 1926 he would see the world colour.

Have you got the link to the originals?
