Havre Des Pas – Image Analysis

This image of the entirety of Havre des Pas is framed to show the buildings in the area from the cover of an old seating area. I believe this monochrome effect that utilises the dark grey clouds in the sky creates this sense of viewing from safe place. In the past, the area was an old ship yard and was the home of many factories and dry docks for building the shipping that kept Jersey alive. I therefore used two images, the base being of the area and the second being of a large funnel situated on the opposite side of the hill (behind the photographer). I used photoshop to revert this residential area back to the industrial landscape that it once was. The physical lines of each of the fences and the shapes of the houses add to this historical landscape and coupled with the monochrome colour palette strengthens this idea.
