How does a Photogram work?• When exposed to sun light a chemical reaction
occurs.• The paper is washed and removes the exposed
chemical area
• This image is the “positive” or outline of the object used.
This results is a white image on a blue background
You can buy paper that is already light sensitive.
This is the type of paper we are using.
STEPS (on project note sheet)
1. Arrange your objects on the paper2. Place glass over paper and objects 3. Place paper over glass before going outside -paper is sunlight sensitive!
4. Expose to sunlight Timing: Depends on amount of sunlight
– Cloudy (2-3 minutes)– Partly cloudy (1-2 minutes)– Full sun (1 minute – 30 seconds)
5. Cover up print and take back inside.
6. Wash in water tray for 1 minute -Use peroxide solution or not (your choice)7. Lay to dry on newspaper & blot off excess
water with towel
