Diptychs and Triptychs

Diptychs and triptychs are a way of presenting images that have been constructed to create some type of relationship between the photographs.


Diptychs 
Diptychs are a set of two images manipulated together to show a relationship. In the diptych shown below the connection is between the horizontal line of the lights. In the image to the left, the car lights are shown going towards the right of the page which leads onto the second image as the lights from the city are more towards the left of the photograph. In order to achieve the correlation I had to manipulate the photograph by flipping the image using Photoshop, this allows the image as a whole to flow better.

Triptychs
Triptychs have the same concepts as diptychs however instead of using two images, a set of three separate photographs are shown together to show a relationship between all three.
In the images below we can see all three images have different light trails created by the people you can see in the background.
I like the set of images because I like the progression of heights or positioning of the people in the triptych. The highest positioning is the image to the left and it progresses to the photograph to the right.
All three images show the people creating the light trails however they don't show the persons face which is what they all have in common.
