What is Anthropocene?

Anthropocene is the Human effect onto Earths topography, in photography, it covers a variety of images containing human impact to the earths geology, landscape, limnology, ecosystems and climate. With the use of photography, we as a society can observe how the implications of our lives into Earth can change it over time. With photography being around since the early 19th century, observations can be made on how over time, places change in shape, size and appearance.

Evident in Jersey, with the developments of new housing, financial buildings and overall re-urbanisation in places like St Helier we can see from Jerseys past to now, the changes put in place and how the effects of alienisation and disassociation can generate from what things where like and how they appeared compared to modern day.
