A kerfuffle of images

I'm not actually posting any photography related images in this post. I thought I'd spice things up by adding some of my painstakingly, hand drawn, hand crafted art work that put me through hours of turmoil and frustration that sent me to the breaking point of my sanity.

Photograms

A photogram is a photographic image made without a camera by placing objects directly onto the surface of a photo-sensitive material such as photographic paper and then exposing it to light. The result is a negative shadow image varying in tone, depending on the transparency of the objects used. Areas of the paper that have received no light appear white; those exposed through transparent or semi-transparent objects appear grey.[1]

This method of imaging is perhaps most prominently attributed to Man Ray and his exploration of rayographs. Others who have experimented with the technique include László Moholy-Nagy, Christian Schad (who called them "Schadographs"), Imogen Cunningham and even Pablo Picasso.

"EVERYBODY TO THE STAGE!"

This is my final project for photography. It's a series taken during the Montgomery College World Ensemble rehearsals and sound check. I have more prints that were not included in the selection for the final. I will post them later.

random photos

I needed some fun while waiting in the dark room, so I developed these.
