Spaghetti, hemp, coffee beans, some glass rectangle thingie, Chris' keys. Color photography is so confusing but I love it!
Photogram self-portrait, done by lying under the enlarger, developing it and piecing together the photopaper.
I have been spending some time looking at old work recently. This is from my 2010 college workbook. (digital scan)

This was my first project to do photograms in my film class. sorry about the carpet in the pics.. developed pictures are coming soon! I am so excited about this class!
This is my very first photogram! I made this yesterday. I didn't even know what a photogram was until recently. For those of you who don't know you use a piece of photo paper in a dark room and you can put whatever you want on the paper. I chose to cut squares out of some old film that had that had been ruined by sunlight and then places shapes in the squares that represented myself. You then expose the paper to light. (I did for 15 seconds.) Then you go through the process of developing the photo. (Developer, stop bath, fixer, wash bath.) And voila! You have a photogram. :)
I wanted the shapes to be lighter but unfortunately the paper I used for the shapes was not thick enough and the light was able to shine through them. The shapes include: an eiffel tower, a music note, an ice cream cone, a heart, and a camera. There was supposed to be a clarinet but I forgot to put it on there evidently. I got an A+ on this though! :D
It's black on white because I inverted the photogram, so the shadows are dark and what was dark is light.
I am on a mission to show my daughter how photography works. I started with a camera obscura, and then went on to making photograms. I am actually quite pleased with the results - can you guess what the items are?
Credit for the images goes to my daughter who was responsible for arranging the items, and helped with lights and development.

A photogram of a water bottle, I love taking photograms of interesting objects which aren't the same each time so I picked a water bottle and decided to jazz the background a bit by including the plants from my previous photogram
