Dried Lily Leaf: made with light, paper, glass, leaf in darkroom - no negative, no enlargement. (leaf size exceeds my 8x10 paper but that didn't stop me....)
no time for more color but thought I will check my LED setup for x-ray film exposure. Seems in my setup on low setting and led on the ceiling it is about 5 seconds to the some details, perhaps a bit shorter but still developing very cold 10 C. Had to bleach and fix to correct a bit since when it looks good under red-light x-ray film has 2 sides so it ended up bit dark. Lots of scratches also even when I was using only gloves to touch. I tried in computer to make a positive but think it looks better in negative. post edit on the computer and added some color.

Glass daguerreotype
Becquerel developed.
Dagerrotípiáim, avagy kortárs dagerrotípiák. Contemporary daguerreotype
This was developed in Caffenol C developer (instant coffe, washing soda, vitamin C). My first attempt in DIY photo chemistry.
I developed the lumen photograms in dilute developer, or fixed direc, or first bleached before processing, then developing in dilute paper developer and then fixing. They now should be real to light. When first bleaching it goes more to gray black, when first developing it keeps the brown color from the exposure.
After exposure, first bleached in C41 bleach then redeveloped in dilute paper developer in light by inspection pulled washed and fixed. This gives a more grey final image.

A photograph of a photograph of photograms. During a visit to the Walker Art Center, they had a little hands-on workshop to create photograms, the camera-less way to capture images and the descendant of photography. Mary made spirals while I made what we'll say are two abstract trees in the rain.
My 52 week project for 2017: a photo each week with the Leica Sofort and a photo of the resulting print at the scene of the shooting.
A photogram made by placing several slices of lemon directly onto colour photographic paper, thus creating an image of their transparency. The other white "shadows" are of tomato vine stems, and the background texture is created by enlarging the grain of handmade paper which was placed in the negative carrier. The lemons and tomato stems were placed on a piece of cellophane and some of the creases are visible, as well as some gathered drops of the lemon juice. The varied thicknesses of the lemon slices are what determine both its transparency/translucency and the clarity of the detail - compare the two touching slices nearest to the centre of the image. Deliberate slight cyan cast. No digital manipulation.

One of the first photographs created was a photogram. I love re-visiting the historical and simple process from time to time. The simplicity I find refreshing and the chemical processing in the darkroom is almost a meditative state for me.
I found some old photograms while going through my things. I liked these when I made them but I never felt like I pushed photograms as far as I could. I still think photograms in general haven't been explored to their full potential as a medium and I often think about making larger, more grand looking landscapes using techniques I learned while creating these.
I had two sheets of coated paper left and my 4 year old daughter Grace wanted to help me, so we made these together... :)

Photograms done in the dark room (I splashed fix on the paper with a paint brush before I exposed it).

September '10. I decided to try my hand at Polaroid photograms! I'm quite happy with these results. Exposed for no longer than a second and a half or so using the light from my iPhone. (Not pictured: the five or so over- and under-exposed Polaroids I used trying to get my lighting situation correct.)
