The photogram is one of the oldest ways to make an imprint on photosensitive material. The silhouette could perhaps be considered a kind of in-camera photogram, or at least a safe way to come close without causing damage to the camera, film, or sensor. Today's photograph is a macro silhouette of the tendrils shot out by the parasitic vines that emerge around here in Spring. Presented this way, they look like a kind of calligraphy. I've never made an entire body of work based on photograms and silhouettes. Perhaps it is something to explore a little bit. I am reminded of a quote from Harry Callahan: "There are no rules in photography (that's why it's so much better than baseball)".
