A photogram is an image made by placing an object on a piece of photographic paper then exposing it to the light, no camera or lens is used in the process. These photograms were made as part of my City and Guilds photography project "Images Without Lenses".
One photographer famous for his photograms was Man Ray. Click on one of the sites below to see examples of his work.
Information on some of the 'Alternative' photograpic process such as Cyanotypes and Gum Printing, which can be used whilst making sunprints can be obtained from http://www.cool.mb.ca/~gnome/pinhole.html
