I’ve been using a version of this C&H Lock Screen for my phone for at least 10 years.

Edit: I couldn't find it, so I recreated it. On iPhone I used the duotone background filter on the uncolorized version. I also created an approximation of the duotone version enjoy!

I know. I thought I would find it and add it to the post. I have all my pictures archived, but somehow I’m not finding it.

I’m going to recreate it and post tomorrow morning.
