My first attempt at a montage with Photoshop Elements 5
Statue of William the Conquerer at Falaise, Normandy
When I took the rear view with him towering over the church I had in mind that people like William controlled the Church and used it for political purposes. Later I read this in a book I bought in Falaise Castle, which seems a good caption for the photo:
There could scarcely be a better example of William's political skill, for at a stroke he had managed to get the Church to give him the monopoly of violence in Normandy. 1066: The Year of the Three Battles, F. McLynn
