Plan 1

For the photoshoot I would collect bottle caps and place them on a black background and take a picture then I would change the position of the caps and take more picture then layer them onto each other to give the illusion of there being more. This is inspired by Mandy Barker.

Plan 3

Kaleidoscope Experimentation

Base Image

I cropped the image so when I duplicate it it will connect up

I then changed the canvas sizes’ width to be double

I filled in the blank space with red so I can see later if there is any gaps between the images

I selected the red area with the magic wand selection tool and did an inverse select so it would select the image instead

Then I duplicated the layer, moved it over the red space and flipped it horizontally and then flattened the image

Then I doubled the height of the canvas

There is a gap in the middle of the image because you can see a red line so we have to make the image overlap

Then i cropped the image so there is no more red showing

I duplicated the image and flipped it 90 degrees

Then I flicked through the blending mode until i found one that looks good

I repeated this process

A exact typology is a sole photograph or more commonly a bulk of photographic work, that shares a extreme level of consistency. This consistency is mostly found inside the subjects, surroundings, photographic process, and performance or direction of the subject.
