Forty day exposure of a pokeberry anthotype. The image is from a never before printed 2004 negative of Dr. Frangst converted into a positive transparency.
In 1974, while still at school, I experimented with various techniques to produce “abstract” photographs. This example was created using Agfacontour, a technical film made to create equidensities. It has both negative and positive components, which, according to the exposure given produce black and white images of a given density. For example three separations could be made for each of the light, dark and intermediate tones.
This was a time consuming business, and the film was discontinued once it became possible to make separations digitally.
Having made the separations, I went on to add colour, giving each layer a different hue. I did this in two ways, first by making black and white negatives on lith film, and using the Tetenal toning chemicals to replace the black silver image with a dye layer. Later I used 24 x 36mm images together with a slide duplicator and added different coloured light for each layer. This was done by keeping the shutter open and working in the dark.
Doing some more time now on one gumprint.

I'm still getting the hang of this process, but I'm pleased to be getting some results.
