New Photography Fun & Games

So obviously I couldn't stay away for my whole "vacation" :-P

But, I'm just starting to play with a new technique and it is too fun not to share! Just tonight I started experimenting with ways to make a photogram (see description here) using digital means. Tonight's experiments involved a extremely bright metal halide lamp, an old scanner, and some flower petals. I am intrigued by the results and will post more details on the technique once I get it honed down. I'm going to try a few other methods, so we'll see what comes of it all.



Hope everyone has a happy and safe New Year!

    Hi Diana -

    The answer to your question about my photograms and UV/IR images is "all of the above". Depending on the image, I used IR filtration, a scanner, and varying light sources.

    Best wishes with your work - Harold

    I'm happy to try and describe the process, though it's been a while since I've done any. Send me a message via my contact page - http://dsbrennan.com/contact.htm - and I'll be able to explain more fully over email. Thanks!
