This picture which looks like the remnants of a dystopian Wasteland, started with an upturned bike with its wheels removed. I came across it on a back street in Pottergate, Norwich. The mountain of scrap metal (including the car!) was in a big yard in Yarmouth. The premises belong to EMR Group Scrap Metal, on the Southgate Rd. opposite the junction with Queens Rd. It was a photo opportunity I couldn’t miss. Marrying the two aspects came by experimentation, as I was looking for what scenario to use the bicycle. The disparity between sizes added to the surreal effect. Lastly came the skyline which I’ve filled with the Ferris Wheel from Yarmouth beach. I have distorted it to fill the picture and give the image some ‘movement ‘. I applied a different filter to each component to distinguish their place in the montage. The title came at the very end and the irony wasn’t lost on me……..
