I've been looking at a few images again, especially in relation of adding objects into background and foreground and have seem some interesting techniques that i want to play with.
Tonal colour: as i use a lot of black and white in my work, i can also use shades of grey. What i have found look really nice is to use different shades of grey to seperate objects and also to make them appear closer or further away. Then theres gradients which you can use to bring things back into the foreground and make things appear from another object.... all part of making a more seamless image rather than bunging stuff on top of each other.
Size: This one is a pretty obvious one, using size to my advantage to make things appear closer or further away, or of course exaggerating something to make it abstract or just to make it stand out more.
And finally what to put into your image. I think its important to make most if not all objects in an image relevent to the subject. But also adding slightly abstract geometric shapes can add to the feel of the image and also be using is background/foreground images to break something up.
Plenty of stuff to experiment with here!
