Scanography
No camera? No problem. Scanography is a process of creating images using a flatbed scanner. In the summer I experimented a bit with this process by arranging objects on a scanner with the reflective cover folded out of the way. The room with fairly dark so no ambient light hit the CCD sensor which explains the dark background. The scanner needs to be clean since dust and pollen show up as white spots.

I tried scanning some Alstroemeria blossoms. Notice how they fade into the background. |

My Amaryllis blossoms shed a lot of pollen. |

Moving objects can produce some interesting effects |
