Tom watching the construction

Tom and I are neighbors though at a half kilometre's distance. That great, gaping, crawling, construction hole that late last summer was in front of my house is now in front of his. With that daily activity outside, he is having his tea in his sidewalk seat rather than on his doorstep seat, and that gives him more opportunity to chat with passers-by.

Stripped of its colour, through a mainly-red filter, and with local contrast judiciously managed, as well as a border added, all in PSP.
