Fantasy Landscapes.
Part of the course is to Manipulate four Pictures around the theme of Fantasy Landscapes.
The manipulation of the images was to be done on Photoshop and the images had to have a Theme.
I had photographed various landscapes and was inspired by two photographers whilst completing this task, one was Di Liu as I love the way Di Liu, a 25-year-old Chinese photographer, worked on the difficult relationship between nature and human society, the consequences of the galloping urbanization in China today, which infact echos around the world. The second being Giles Norman, The photographer is inspired by the very landscape where he lives and I can't think of anything better than to everyday see more and more of what is around you.
I started with very little in the idea section and it took a while but once I saw Di liu's images I thought I would used a similar idea in my own work, the concept of Animals domineering the particular landscape where the photograph was captured was very appealling. As my Idea developed and I became more confident in using photoshop, I began to add more images within the Landscape picture as well as the domineering animal.
I have firstly taken a landscape image then added an oversized animal to it. The equipment that I used was my camera a Cannon 1000D, Tripod, Memory card that I always ensured was clear or had pleanty of space on it and the computer using either Photo shop or Picassa to edit and Manipulate the images.
I encounterd pleanty of challenges whilst using photoshop as I had never used it before and I also struggled firstly to use the Apple Mac at college but it's all about what you get used to. The more I used Photoshop and the Mac the more confident I became and Started to enjoy using Photoshop however you do need to plan lots of time into using photo shop because it can become quite addictive.
Below are my final four manipulated images which I am pleased with and enjoy looking at and I hope that viewers will enjoy them too, the Animals may one day claim there landscape back!
Enjoy!!
