8 SEPTEMBER

8/9/2019

Getting ready for autumn, we cut back the sweet pea climber in the garden this week, and I found a horde of treasures lurking at its base: curly dried up tendrils, leaf skeletons, twisty stalks etc. I tried to take photos of them but it wasn't working - frustrating, when I could see the beauty, but the camera just noted a messy pile.

I remembered in July 2010 I experimented with placing flowers directly on the scanner, covering them with a black T-shirt and making scans. I loved the old-mastery results.

I tried doing the same with the sweet pea hoard with excellent result. Every curly tendril, skeleton and wizened thing captured in the bright pass perfectly.

Thanks for visiting, see you next week!
