Exercise 4.4 Layers

I found this a thought provoking exercise. A large part of the challenge was choosing the images that would work well together. The original four images are shown below.

An example created in the process of experimenting for Exercise 3.1 is shown below

Through the process, I decided to experiment further with contrasting shapes, using architecture as an inspiration. The image below is created from two photographs of the Corn Exchange using the Pin Light Blending Mode. In this blending mode, ‘Where the colors are 50% gray on the blend layer, the base layer shows through. Lighter or darker than 50% gray will display on the blend color.’ (Smith, 2016)
