Photogram

Photogram

What is a photogram?
A photogram is an image that has not used a film camera. Photographic paper is exposed to light with objects placed on top.

How did I made my photogram

First I get a scrap of sheet paper and rip it apart into a small pieces.

I take it over to the dark room.

Before I start, I ask my teacher Owen for photographic paper.

I set large area of light enlarger Aperture = f 8/f11 because there will be enough area to fit in the photographic paper.

I spread out some ripped papers on the shiny photographic paper.

Before I turn on the light, I must set the timer on five seconds.

I must keep active the timer ten times with cardboard above the plastic paper and move it along to next side, like 1/10 fraction.

Then I place photographic paper in the "Developer Chemical Tray" and keep sliding it for two minutes until I see the picture.
I use a hand-holder place it in "Stop Solution" for thirty seconds because I don't want to get chemical on my hand otherwise there maybe some poisonous if I touch my foods.
Then I place it in "Fix" for two minutes.
I run under water for two minutes and put it on the tray.
Finally I take it into the studio and dry them by using the roller dryer.

Discuss my photogram

Next time I will rip the paper into smaller pieces and place them on the photographic paper to create an image of a firework.
