Chris,

Is somebody producing analemma images this way? Anthony doesn't. AFAIK
all of his images are against the actual background where the analemma
was photographed.

These photos are the result of two layers taken independently .. one of the analemma (on a single frame) and the other of the foreground. They were layered together in Photoshop.

There is a variety of reasons I pursued such a route including my very humble foreground where the analemmas were actually taken (olive trees everywhere) and a wish to identify the work as being "Greek".

Anthony.
