To create altered landscape photographs for the Anthropocene project, I would need to explore various ways that I can do it to portray a message about the environment and modern society’s impact on it as well, through mediums such as photoshop or maybe other more traditional methods.
I started with two similar images, that had almost identical compositions – a path leading from the camera lens straight off into the distance, the horizon in view, a cable hanging from a pole, and a monochrome colour palette.
I then pasted one image on top of the other, and experimented with various blending modes, which matched the greyscale tones of the photographs.
I removed the bottom half of the background image so that you could more clearly see the top layer, and was left with this as the final product.
I think that this could be good for my exam piece but I don’t know how I could implement it yet.
