The explanation lies in the artist’s incredibly detailed planning, construction and manipulation of multiple images. Redpath reveals: “Each final image is usually composed of 15-50 individual shots. I consider the human activity, the weather, the time of year, the time of day, the angle of the light, the quality of the light, the state of the foliage, the tidal movement, and the image framing, all as I shoot multiple images in a short enough time to catch what is happening yet without much sun or tidal movement. While the motion and poses of the human subjects are unplanned, the process of digital image construction that follows is where I hone the composition, selecting and placing the figures from multiple shots.

The explanation lies in the artist’s incredibly detailed planning, construction and manipulation of multiple images. Redpath reveals: “Each final image is usually composed of 15-50 individual shots. I consider the human activity, the weather, the time of year, the time of day, the angle of the light, the quality of the light, the state of the foliage, the tidal movement, and the image framing, all as I shoot multiple images in a short enough time to catch what is happening yet without much sun or tidal movement. While the motion and poses of the human subjects are unplanned, the process of digital image construction that follows is where I hone the composition, selecting and placing the figures from multiple shots. Extremely high resolution also serves to heighten reality – my current system enables 14,204 pixels wide in one frame.”\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e-----\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAnthony Redpath is a Vancouver‑based photographer who transforms everyday environments into richly textured, visually compelling studies of colour, form, and social experience.
