Good afternoon!

I am doing some prep for my quickly approaching Photography A2 Exam and I want to know if what I am doing means anything to people who will view my photography work (examiners and when work is put up for show for a special art evening).

The Exam Question is:

Altered Image.

Basically, taking photos and editing them through Photoshop or another program, which is easier or impossible to do with regular film photography.

Above is the photo (incomplete, but gives you a rough idea).

Explanation

What I aim to achieve in the 15 hours is a line of photos of 1 building (or 2 if I have enough time) and the first photo, which would be on the left, would be of a normal building. Then from this photo I will make another, which will be the same building, but this time, missing windows or doors and this will go on for a few more photos which will conclude of the building with no features. Just a shape in patterned with brick or colour if I decide to go beyond the brick pattern.

Criticism is welcome and maybe some ideas.

Apparently some people can't notice what is different to a regular building. Here is an un-touched photo of the church:

not the most thrilling photo in the world but yeah i'd pobably change the sky and generaly clean up the photo e.g get rid of the bags at the bottom left, get rid of the puddle and the cracks in the wall. It looks abit plain i'd put something in the middle somewhere and jazz it up

It's to remove parts of an image until it is slightly recognisable. WHen I do it for the exam, the last photo would just be a brick patterned shape of a church, if it can be recognised as a church.
