Allison - 4x5 paper negative 1986 Camera: Speedgraphic Media: Paper Negative |
|
What is most unusual about this picture is the fact that I shot directly onto paper, not film.
I developed the "paper negative" to normal density and then used a glass paper holder to hold the paper negative in direct contact with the printed paper. This sandwich was then exposed with the enlarger light - through the paper negative.
This process, after a little experimentation, yields interesting results - the only "grain" comes from the negative's fibres.
The detail in the eye of the model is quite sharp.
