Mine

My final edited image was created using Photoshop. I used the double exposure edit to layer two images on top of each other. My image has a bright exposure like Tanawy’s and also contains the use of pastel colors. This creates a feminism feel which is similar to Tanawy’s. The two images that I used where very different. I used a silhouette of branches hanging down with the sky as the background. I also used the reflection from inside a window to layer over it. Both of the images together create this interesting dimension with the use of the reflection as well as the silhouette.

Tanawy’s image also looks like a double exposure edit. I used this image as a comparison to mine because I think its one of the most interesting from her series. The image contains silhouettes of trees and aspects of nature that she layers to create her final edit. She combines many scenes to create this dreamlike, spiritual atmosphere. This image is very bright and full of pastel colors. This style is very similar to my edit because it is also bright and full of pastel colors.  I like the contrast within the image because it contains pale yellows and also harsh reds. The image has a tropical feel because of the palm trees and the birds in the center of the frame. The colors in the image create consultations of pain and hatred with the use of the harsh reds.
