For the “Selfie” project I decided to use a photo taken of me by my friend Lucie. I liked the placement of my hair however was not a fan of the face I was making, which urged me to turn it into a silhouette. Next I thought of my favorite places in the world, the mountains and the ocean. I wanted to incorporate both of those aspects so I chose to fill one silhouette with a photo of the mountains and then one with the ocean. After this I got stuck and was unsure how to complete the image.. a darker background looked the best however anything with a gradient did not look very good.
