206 PHoToGRaPHeRs’ GalleRy

g Anna’s Hand
This image was inspired by sculptural shapes. i gave
it a still-life effect with a shallow depth of field, using my
10 x 8 inch kodak eastman camera and a softbox for
lighting. it was printed in toned cyanotype. Contrast
and form dominate the composition.

e Mel’s Torso
My objective here was to emphasize shape and
i therefore avoided identity by focusing on the body,
with no facial expression to distract from the composition.
Mel’s body was lit only by a window to the side. i used
ilford FP4 film and my 10 x 8 inch camera.
