Using photos for HO scale scenery

Back to the steps of the church which I want populated with worshippers and tourists.

I then reduced the images to HO scale and printed them off on photographic paper.

Used a couple of plastic HO scale figures for comparison.

Obviously, I'll cut the figures out but the effect will be basically as follows:
