Background ideas for self portrait


Decided against the above image as the colour scheme clashed too much with that of my machine.

Had an idea to use a background image of concrete cracking as it is symbolic of the power of a jackhammer. However due to the scale of the image it made the machine look too small.


This image was ok as the colours matched that of my machine, the quality of the image was not too low therefore appeared pixelated and could not be used.

Decided that this background suited my machine best as allowed the machine to appear as flying. The lines of the crane and bulidings also lined up well with the wings of my machine making the image look good composition wise. The image was darkened to allow my machine to stand out.
