Helen Saunders is another quite local photographer. She also went to Loughborough University, but her images are extremely different to Ali Lomas's images. Helen creates her own landscapes by photographing different things in various different locations. I really like this idea, it is almost as if she creates her own fictional world. Some of Helen's images are very obvious in what she has done such as the second one above, but some are a bit more subtle where you don't really notice what has been changed until you study the image closely, like the first image above.
I think that these images are technically very good in terms of the skillls she has when using Photoshop. I would love to be able to use Photoshop to this extent. It must have taken her a long time to perfect these skills as when questioned about it she said that she had never really had any lessons, all of her editing skills are self taught. Apart from the editing skills that were involved these pictures do not appeal to me massively as i think that they are all really quite dark and gloomy, i think that it might make a difference in my opinion if this was not the case. In the future i hope to develop much better skills when using Photoshop.
