These photographs were taken by Chelsea McNamara in Giverny, France at famous artist, Claude Monet's garden. These pictures provide a ridiculous display of beautiful colors which accent the creatively constructed compositions. McNamara uses a brilliant sense of rhythm in each picture with repetitious shapes and colors dispersed throughout. She uses a technique for double exposure to create the allure of the man who once gardened them.
McNamara's aim for these pictures was to establish a feeling of impressionism to embody the original inspiration of her inspiration, in Monet, and his style of art. The double exposure effect in an effort to convey the sense of authenticity, as well as the mystique qualities of the art.
I think that these photographs are very well done, and crafted amazingly. I feel the essence of Monet's vision existing vicariously through these images, giving me a feeling of the realness of photography, while simultaneously portraying a fantasy-like aspect to them, which is exactly what she was going for.
