Image SelectionThis is one of my favourite final outcomes because of the architecture and context behind this photograph. The image shows a skeleton of a gas tank that exploded and caught fire a few years ago. To me, this represents the destructing effect that man has on this Earth. I like the composition of the image because it reveals the skeleton of the building clearly and shows where most of the damage occurred. I levelled this image in photoshop just by increasing the contrast. I would’ve preffered to photograph this on a nicer/ sunnier day so that the building would stand out more. This is one of my favourite final outcomes because of the bold use of colour within the piece of art that has been painted on the side of a building. I also like the contrast in colours between the sky and the building; the sky is eerily grey whereas the building is bright and happy. I am a huge fan of graffiti since I find it so intriguing to look at. I levelled this in photoshop by increasing the contrast of the image to make it bolder. This is one of my favourite outcomes again, because of the colours that stand out within the image. The piece of graffiti also in a way matches the theme of New Topography. The phrase ‘changes’ suits the theme since humans are changing the world into a concrete jungle. I levelled this image in photoshop to make the colours bolder and much more vibrant. This is another one of my favourite final outcomes because it reveals the construction of buildings; which are the things that essentially create an urban landscape.
