Photograms

PHOTOGRAMS

As an introduction to photography we spent a lesson in the dark room experimenting with photograms. We placed objects onto a sheet of photographic paper which we then exposed to light for between 3 and 7 seconds. These are the outcomes of the photograms I produced.

In one of our first lessons we went into the dark room and had a go at some photograms, I picked out an old dead plant that looked a bit like a dandelion and then bits of a plant that look like the seeds of a dandelion and I placed them on some photographic paper in the dark room with only red lights on, I then exposed it to light for about 7 seconds and this was my end result.

Before I did the Previous photogram I did my first try with these objects hoping for it to look a little like a landscape.
