Photograms out doors

A range of photogram techniques can be applied out doors with great effect.


 

I made this work using the process of photosynthesis used large leaf shapes constructed from layers of news paper laid on the grass for several weeks -

 

I used the sun to expose this cyanotype

 

These series of images were made by allowing ocean waves to wash over a sheet of black and white paper. The flash that took the photograph was also the illumination that created the photogram.

To keep the salt water off the equipment, I had the camera in an underwater housing. The curve of the paper lifted by the wind created a shadow and the sand splashes on the top right of the paper added to the abstract visual effect of the image.
