I have been photographing my home in Cliviger and the Ribble Valley. This is very rural, with lots of nature and countryside. The opposite to this is my home in Manchester, which is a very built up and industrial city. I consider the two both my home but I wanted to portray them both in one image. To see what they would look like layered on top of each other. I achieved this by taking photographs of the two areas and double exposing them on top of each other.
I am pleased with the photographs, especially the ones were it looks as though the foliage from the countryside is taking over the city. This reminds me of films such as 'I Am Legend' and '28 Days Later' where the city has been abandoned and foliage has began growing on the buildings and streets of the city.
