During my summer holiday, I managed to get a bunch of files out of an old broken computer of mine. I just stumbled unto the image above, along with the two variations you can see below.

I saw some similarities between one of the pictures my mother sent me from when I was ten, and another my girlfriend took of me after a hike this summer, so I decided I would combine them into one image, alongside one of my favorite quotes from Doctor Who.
