Image 1's black and white composition is notable, seemingly rendering the landfill timeless and/or a relic of past events and consumption. There is little sense of what happens underneath it's elaborate system of pipes and covers. Compared to Image 2, it's scale seems smaller or more intimate, as it is hard to tell how large the landfill is, even on the surface. Unclear if Image 1 is found or created. Image 2 provides an interesting contrast, both in scale and tone. It is in full color and gives a birds-eye view of the areas surrounding West Lake. In the future, I'd be interesting in seeing other visual perspectives, such as from the hill of the winery. What insights emerge from all of these different POVs on the same "place?"
