PRINT TO PIXEL - Rayograms.

We did a workshop in the darkroom to introduce us to the machines, in which we were also given 10 sheets of light sensitive paper for us to experiment with and create images using items we had brought in and different exposure times.


Straws - I allowed them between 5seconds and 30seconds exposure time. As you can see, the longer the exposure time the darker the image.


Straws - I did the same straws for this rayogram, however I allowed between 1second and 6 seconds exposure time which produced better results. 


Wooden Necklace & drawing pins - I exposed these items for 5seconds, 10seconds, 15seconds and 20second. The 20second exposure had the best results as it showed the curve of the pins.


Haribo Tangfastics - The clear sweets with sugar on created a really nice effect when exposed to the light and created an almost pixelated appearance.


I am hoping to go into the dark room again very soon and try out some other objects to create different effects and looks.
