Image Manipulation - 1) Erik Johansson

For task two of our 'Somewhere' brief, we must research five photographers that use image manipulation for their work. We must research images that they have created through the image manipulation software, then we must score them out of ten, 1 being bad and 10 being excellent, reasons why and explanations why we do or do not like their selected photo.


My first researched artist is Erik Johansson, I like the image below because it is definitely out of the ordinary. It makes you think about the image and how this software is used to create the photo to make it look realistic rather than fake. I like this image a lot, I would rate it 7/10.

This photograph below is one of my favourites from Erik, mainly because the editing used actually makes this photograph so real, as if the water has actually come out of the picture from the river and into the house. Also you can see her reflection from the water on the floor that has 'apparently' dropped out of the photo. I rate this image 8/10.
