For this project, idea came to me very quick. Maybe some influence did and Charles Marville who was taking pictures before and after building demolition. London is very busy and alive city. You can see same streets full of people and sometimes even empty. It depends what time you are there.
My plan and idea is to show same place in twenty-four hours difference. Let's say, one photo to take early Sunday morning and another one in same place Monday morning. I will try to choose streets and places, which are busy and interesting in architecture. To present it I think I will do in diptych type.
Lot photographers I’ve checked and wanted to find somebody who were doing a similar idea. And in long researches I found British photographer: Michael Marten. He was photographing simple things: United Kingdom seaside’s landscapes. But he was doing two pictures in six or 18 hours difference. Dramatic changes come out when compare two pictures – natural tide landscape. These pictures inspire to think about human and nature connection.
There are some nice pictures of Michael Marten:
