How I did My Attempt at Juxtaposition
My images is a Gem Forest (or Forest of Gems) where Gems grow out of the ground instead of being found underground.
I did my image using Photoshop by moving images in to the place I want them and them using the rubber tool just rubbing away at a copy of the background image to get the Gems to look like they just appeared from the ground and recolored the background to make it look un-natural.

Ross, this is a rather limited discussion of juxtaposition and you don’t appear very confident with the concept or its application. While you are correct that it is about contrasting elements, your examples (including your own creative practice) do not really reflect this concept. Juxtaposition is about how new meanings might be created through these contrasting elements, for example, if the trees in the forest were mechanical, rather than if natural elements grew out of the ground instead of under it.
