describing photos pt2

The original viewpoint made it seem like it was photographed in a studio then later photoshopped. It was revealed that the photo was a man climbing a billboard in an industrial setting. The new viewpoint makes me aware of the artist's skills to expand the image so large for a billboard. Conceptually the image was pretty clever, but could have been more realistic. The face looked very texturized which in some cases somewhat help the realistic factor in a photoshopped image. In Ireland where this image is located, there is a body of water, and the billboard is by land. There is rusty bridge where the poster is present. her face looks engaged and unfazed which adds to the illusion to make the audience believe the man is actually climbing up the girls face as if she was aware. The girl's face looks overly bright face which was probably altered in photoshop or lighting in an original image as i first predicted. The viewpoint has really changed my perception of the my meaning and the artists intended meaning.
