Had an idea while driving halfway across the priairies last weekend - Calgary to Saskatoon...
I was stuck by how what I was seeing was big swatches of single colors. Big reddish sky, big dark blue clouds huge green fields, long black strip of road heading off into infinity. I'm working with large pinhole black and white negatives, but I'm struck by the color, and I'm beginning to work again with gum bichromate. One can build an image by printing repeatedly with different pigments and negatives on same paper. I could make multiple false color seperation negs. One neg for the sky printed red, one neg for clouds printed dark blue one neg for green fields, one for the road etc. I can make a multicolor image where I print different parts of the image in different colors (of my choice). Should be able to create the mutliple negs with a computer. Next to impossble without a computer. Gord --------------------------------------------------------- Gordon J.
