Layering

Playing with scale and making things seem as if the they are larger or smaller than they truly are is something that has never really interested me but in this project i have found that i need to somehow make the subjects in my images feel as if they have no end. Initially i thought about my lens choice to achieve he desired effect however i was finding that the lenses ended up distorting the image or i was capturing certain elements that i didn't want in the images so i looked at other methods of trying to incorporate scale into my images. When i was looking through my sketch book for ideas that would help me to complete my new concept i came across the work of Henry Peach Robinson which at first didn't really seem as if it was relevant but as i read through my notes i had about him i saw that he used to layer negatives to create a print from two or more negatives and i saw that i could use this technique to layer some negatives to make my final images look as if they went on forever. As it is a technique i have never used i think it will be good to learn how to do this especially i the results are good.
