Conceptual landscape

    The photograph below would be considered conceptual traditional for several reasons. Among these reasons, is the use of Photoshop in a creative and somewhat unconventional way, that is, making the 'landscape' appear to be on a man's head. Also note the distortion of scale-or rather, just how big that head is. On closer inspection, one also notices that the church, tree, castle etc, are in fact not real, but fake, and are tiny plastic models. This perhaps makes only the very background of the photo- which is blurry but appears top be real land- traditional. That in itself is another aspect on this photo's conceptualism- the mesh of a head, toys, and actual landscape.
