For the task of using two different images in order to create a totally new one I chose to use the eye and tried to replicate some of the ideas of reflections inside objects. For the final set of images I chose to use a photograph of the Leeds International Pool drained out. I took this on film which had to be scanned in, high quality at 400DPI to match the quality of the digital and therefore to be blown up further.
The same process of production was used in the earth/moon as one may see from the screen grabs




Here are the final images I produced in the series showing reflections within eyes and the use of layers, feather tools and cloning. Also, some of the reflected images had to be scanned in on the film scanner at 4500DPI in order to create fine quality

This photograph here shows an explosion in his eyes - maybe connoting the sense of the creation of an idea or the complete annhilation of it for the eyes are known as the windows to our souls
A creation of two images - one of the shots of the sun was shot at 8000th of a second showing the sun properly as the light is in a strobe. The photograph was layered on top of the other and an eraser tool was used to blend the two images together on a feathered setting.




An image of the eye using cutting and cloning tools in order to create a surreal photograph of an eye with no pupil.
