P2 Anthropocene best shots and why

4 best shots I will use and why –

1 – I have chosen this photo to edit further in Adobe Lightroom because I think that it is a similar representation to an iceberg/glacier, which is similar to Naomi Whites work where she makes objects/places out of plastic bags in her work and then I will manipulate this further in photoshop through experimentation with other photographs and how it may work in different tones/filters.

2 – I chose this one because I like how the plastic bag looks as if it is floating underwater and the creases and folds gives it a texture of it being in the sea, which I really like as it can be seen as if it is a piece of debris floating around and I will experiment with this further through editing the tones, contrasts, lighting, etc and getting rid of any blemishes it might have from the lightbox.

3 – For this photo, I chose it because I think that it looks as if it is a jellyfish which is moving freely in the ocean due to the way the plastic bag has been positioned and I think that this is a good way to manipulate it with photos, from this photoshoot and the one before to show the harmful effects plastic debris has caused to the oceans. On photoshop I will also fine tune the smaller details from the lightbox where there may be marks on it or darker corners which I want to brighten up.

4 – For this photo, I think that it shares a similarity to number 3 with looking as if it is a jellyfish in the sea because of the way the plastic bag has formed around itself, in photoshop I want to experiment with layering these 2 images or more in various ways because I think that the 2 different colours could look effective together which I really like. I will also crop and brighten the photo to get rid of the darker edge which has happened due to the small surface area of the Lightbox which I was using.
