Heliography, The Beginning, the Pyramids and the pen
Google Street View Photo – Great Pyramid of Cheops, June 2013, midday.
In August 2023, I produced an internegative of *The Beginning, the Pyramids and the Pen*.
On a sunny day, I used it to expose a heliograph onto an aluminium plate coated with asphalt over a period of six hours.
It is the only exposure of this motif.
