somewhere research, photo manipulation :Erik Johansson

zip city::, erik has taken some tractors and behind them put a huge zip in with a city, this was a very clever idea and i like how he has designed and made this, it actually looks quite realistic and the tractors and the grass looks real, but a bit of a disappointment as the city looks edited. if it looked more real with extra lights like new york city or something like that, this picture then, would be amazing.

perspective square case:: this picture is very confusing, with the staircase, but the picture does look real and the staircase looks like it is actually there, you can still see a bit of editing, but nothing can be perfect, the bland colours and the place of where the staircase has been placed is good, so it is the centre of attention, the main bad thing about this picture is that the man on the stairs looks completely edited so that is a bit of a disappointment.

down side of the upside:: this picture i think is really really good, the bridge is both ways and it works and does not collide or look edited, the clouds in the background makes the picture a lot better, and the colour of the picture is bold and dark, so the lonely man on the sides of the bridge look kind of dark and creepy. the shadowing on the bottom of the bridge makes it look even more real.

Deep Cuts:: this picture i think is actually amazing because the picture doesn't look that real, but it does as well, and the giant scissors look like they have perfectly easily cut thought the earth and the house, the women in the house i think it made well because she is in white, and actually looks annoyed about what has happened. and the scissors have actually carried on nearly of the page, and the clouds in the sky have a perfect lining against the rest of what is happening in the rest of the picture.

Go Your Own Way:: i think this picture is amazing! that fact that he has picked up the road in the picture, and is dragging it against the ground to make his own road i think looks amazing, i have to say that this picture looked extremely hard to do and he has done unbelievably well with it, it doesn't actually look at all edited, and it is perfectly placed in his hands and over the grass.

Heaven Express:: i think this picture is quite good, but it is a little bit boring, the good things about this picture is that the clouds at the top of the church and started turning like a tornado and that the clouds have started to move downwards, and the strings that are attached to the church, but other then that i personal think it is boring.

heven express:: i think this picture has been do with great talent, the picture looks like it has been naturally like that, the fences just curve and fall downwards, and the path is perfect and there are no cracks or breaks in the hill, and the man on the bike on the top makes it look even more believable, the only bad thing is that it looks like a mirror image, it probably is, and that is the disappointment in this picture.

Artificial flooding:: i think this picture is acutally really good, the guy putting the mirrors down on the floor makes it look even more amazing, the mirrors actually look like water, and the fact that the are patches that he hasn't done yet makes it look even more amazing, the colour is just a plain colour and is black and white but with a tint of yellow, so it looks even more like the water on the ground, and the colour helps to take out any errors in the picture, this picture doesn't even look like there has been any editing in this picture, apart from the colour.

Marine Works:: i think this picture looks amazing with everything in black and white but the painted floorboards as the ocean is in colour, and i like that the bucket and paint brush is also left in colour, i like the fact that you can see the women painting and her shoes are behind her and that she is sat on the floor, the other good thing is the blue keeps going on for a while by the look of this picture, and that the paint still looks wet so there is a little bit of a refection and how there are different tones of blue and that the is a shadow on the water/floor from the clouds, the another really good thing about this picture is that there are some birds in this picture just flying around like they would on the ocean, this makes the painting look a lot more like actual water.

Aqua Custodia:: this picture is a simple but a none simple picture, the house is under water in a glass box with space with a garden and a tree, and there is a little person in the box next to the glass, there are lights on the corners at the top of the box shining in, and there is some strange patterns in the ocean out of the box like the ocean floor and wall, there is also big metal balls to keep the house in the box down at the bottom of the ocean
