Scanner Shot No 1

My first attempt at Scanography for the technical challenge. ( http://365project.org/discuss/themes-competitions/28924/new-technique-challenge-65-scanography). I took a plastic mobile and wiggled it while scanning for preview. I actually liked the preview better since the scan process took much longer and the movement wasn't as weird as I got with the preview version. This is a DSLR shot of the preview image since I couldn't figure out how to save the preview.

Oh I like this. I love the colours and the wiggly lines.

@deborah63 Thank you, I could learn to like this technique.

[Lyn Todd]

this is intriguing - I love the lines & reflective nature, and it really is creative 'mixed-media'. I wonder if you set the ppi to 'scan' at a lower resolution ( like the preview may be 150ppi or less) if the scan lamp would move faster?

[Walks @ 7]

@ltodd You are a genius! I tried lowering the resolution and love the results. Thank you ever so much.

[Gerasimos Georg.]

wow never heard of scanography before but this shot is great.

[Walks @ 7]

@gerry13 Thank you, I hadn't either until I noticed @kali66 shot. This is a great deal of fun.

@joysabin i made a quick google search about it.apart from a scanner it must takes a lot of effort to scanography but i think one can create some very artistic shots

[kali]

mind boggling :)

[Graeme Stevens]

very cool

[Walks @ 7]

@kali66 I think that this technique (no matter how it is done) has great potential. Art is limitless.

[Walks @ 7]

@graemestevens Thanks and you know I get another opportunity to make my husband just shake his head and walk away. :)

[Rosie Kerr]

Cool! Wonderful repeating color and patterns. I love the observation, that "art is limitless." :)

[Camille Bisson]

so interesting and very nice, too.

[Lockarec]

This is such an interesting image. One would never know what it was at all!

[Stephanie]

Well done for trying this, I like the colour and the waves, it reminds me a little of a thumb print.

[Ashley]

Interesting....

Kudos on findig a way to post your results!!

[Walks @ 7]

@rosiekerr Thank you so much. Art is everywhere, 365 has given me new eyes to see more and more of it.

@catsmeowb Thanks, sometimes I wonder just how crazy I am? :):)

@stephanies thank you, the playing around brings out my crazy side.

@shesnapped Thank you, I am trying not to rely on my son for IT help, sometimes I get it right.

[Domenico Dodaro]

Amazing abstract!

[Ashley]

@joysabin Hey! That's what kids are for doncha know! :-)

[Bill Fenske]

very creative, cool image.

[Walks @ 7]

@shesnapped absolutely!

@domenicododaro Thank you, who knew scanners were a medium that we photogs can have fun with?

@bill_fe Thank you, you are most kind.

[Saxa van Eijnsbergen]

Cool!

[Liz Hammond]

Love this

[Walks @ 7]

@overalvandaan Thank you, I wonder how crazy I am but then we artists have an excuse, that's my story and I'm sticking to it.

@lizhammond The slow movement of the light on the scanner bed was just asking/begging me to do something strange- who was I to disagree? :)
