Landscape Photography – Archives

Our task was to juxtapose one of our original landscape images to one from the Societe Jersiaise: a photographic archive of 80,000 images dating from the mid-1840s to the present day. When on the website, I searched for images of Corbiere Lighthouse, where I found the image below that I thought would match up with a photograph I took there more recently.

Chosen Images

When editing these images together in photoshop I tried to line up the horizon lines by cropping sections of each photograph. The juxtaposition of these images show little difference in the landscape, other than the past having boats in the water and people on the causeway whereas mine does not. The structures and rock forms around the water have changed slightly due to sea erosion however not drastically to note any difference.
