Third Photo

For my third set of photos, I took again the traditonal family 50s portraits but this time defaced them by exposing images of newspapers ontop. Not just any current issues within the newspapers form the fifties, but some of the worst cases involinvg humanitarian loss and deaths of celebritys, it almost begs the question why are these family's putting on such a preface when realigty the is the world is suffering its own unconquerable fears.

Original photos and newspaper clippings: 



After collecting these images and text I placed the newspapers on top and changed the blend mode and opacity to get the desired effect. I choose to extend the canvas by a third so the layout of this image almost resembles the layout of a newspaper.
