Photograms for the Digital Era



Gaillardia, photo by Harold Davis. View this photograph larger.

I photographed this gaillardia on a white background and, as with the bougainvillea bract, used LAB color modality in Photoshop to tinker with the hues and saturation. I think the effect is a digital-era version of a Man Ray rayograph, which are also called photograms.
