I walked around the jersey dump/ power station to find dramatic images that show how much produce humans use and waste. The whole area we walked around was added land built by people, which many people believe has effected the environment around it. For example, lots of sea weed now gets washed up on the beaches next to it. We found many interesting subjects, like a large pile of colourful glass, large mounds on cobble, concrete and other materials, lots of working requirement and more. I edited my photos with high saturation like an Edward Burtynsky photo, with the composition having many things inside so if I scale up my images like he does, there will be many focal points to look at.

Photo1:

Here you can see leading lines towards a broken down fire truck. This image has almost no new objects and people which adds to a wasteland feel.

Photo2:

Here you can see the view of the jersey power station, with large piles or rubbish and dirt in the foreground. The smoke (from diesel turbines) just started, likely because it was around peak energy usage in jersey. The destruction of the ground added with the smoke almost makes the image seem apocalyptic, notifying the viewer of a serious global warming problem.

Photo3:

Here, the whole image is covered in glass bottles, overwhelming the viewer with the worlds waste problems. I have increased the contrast to make each bottle easier to distinguish from one another.

Creative Editing:

Here I only allowed red to be saturated, causing the rest of the image to be black and white.

Here I let gave colour to main subjects in the image, leaving the rest white and black. This helped the images noise as before there was too much going on in one photo, so by doing this the image has main parts the eyes can look at.
