Typography Silhoettes

For the Z I decided to invert the shadows,  mostly as the letter overlapped with the side and I didn't want to crop if possible
Silhoettes creating using masking in photoshop of the examples of typography I found in and around derry. In making the Silhoettes the shapes of the letters becomes clearer, looking much more like its own font.

In doing this I can see possibilities for the letters, in particular the Z. Other letters where they were found in markings on the ground are also interesting, especially when the detail is can be seen even in the shadow. this means that even though the letter forms are more clearly visible, there are still touches that make them stand out from other fonts and lettering that can be found.
