These are my final images in sequence. My proposal was to create an imaginary space from an existing space. These photos create an illusion of a wall and ground using an existing wall and stairwell. Each of the photos was taken during the day with the aperture priority setting.
The point of the sequence is to slowly reveal, or offer hints that the photograph has been flipped. The materials of the stairs help with the illusion as concrete is a material that can be used for both floors and walls. The portrait (turned landscape) photos also help to stretch out the space, creating the misconception of height in the space, and creating a unique scale which has no regard to the true space.
The first photograph in the sequence is the closest focusing in on the corner of the concrete panels, the next is more focused on the ground plane and the bottom edge of the panels. The third and fourth images are quite similar in scale but the fourth one reveals more open space with light coming from around the corner (or below) making the viewer want to move towards it. The fifth photo is open to the sky as the lighting is in fact brighter, and as seen as a ledge that the viewer can walk across, but in the open green space below there are indications deception of the image in the grass and tree branches. The final image still maintains the misconception but again the tree in the background of the image is viewed as being flipped.
