"Purus bosc" Bosc pears, pewter and hemp Print

It was a pleasant surprise when experimenting with the scanner that the subject of this work, the pear's feminine form with its broad base and tapering stem appears to defy gravity and fly off the antique pewter plate on the wings of hemp cloth. This is a photo scan where no camera, no negative, no digital intervention was used. In this case, the subject is four poppies and the equipment a scanner, black cloth, and a laptop computer. The scanner's point source of light, like the sun, reveals every detail that is on the glass but any details not flat on the glass are thrown into soft focus, much like the results attained with a view camera to control depth of field.
