Double Exposure photographs

Looking at the work from the Photorealism movement, I love Richard Estes paintings and the reflections in the windows. Using my practise, photography, I have taken some photographs of shop fronts and windows and double exposured them with another image taken at random. There is a layer of three images in the photograph, what is through the window, the reflection in the window and then the photograph taken on top.

I noticed a recurring theme throughout my photographs of brand, consumerism and advertising therefore I will be looking more into this subject.

I am happy with the result of the photographs, the bright colours and the confusion of the many layers. If you look closer in the photograph, other objects stand out that you would not necessarily have noticed for example, road signs and people walking in the background.

Next, I am going to practise developing photographs in the dark room and experimenting with different images.
