As this was so heavy on post production, I spent a lot of time in photoshop just trying to get the overlaying right. Most of which came down to just choosing the right blending options of individual layers, and playing around with the opacity, and fill opacity of each one as well:
I also sometimes found that the underlying image had objects which obscured the image I was trying to lay on top, regardless of how I tried to blend it, and those occasions I mostly used the clone tool to create a roughly block colour background that matched the rest of the image, which made it a lot easier:
The incorporation of the older images was surprisingly easy as the underexposure of some photographs often made it easier to blend the images in the way I wanted, and created a really nice effect on the edges of the photos too.
Overall I found the post-production mostly just a process of playing around with each image to see what worked for each one, and it was actually very enjoyable to see what effects I could create by doing different things to the image.
