Artquest 30/30 Day 10 ‘Artwork for a Bird’

Another hint I thought I would struggle with until I started routing though a pile of old prints and came across 2 prints of clematis seedheads I had made for a talk on differential focusing a couple of years ago. Seedheads, what better for birds at this time of year, but what to do with them. I have quite enjoyed weaving photographs and cyanotypes and thought this might work here. The two photographs had originally been taken at the same time with the camera on a tripod and only the focusing being changes which meant they were exactly the same size. I do find getting each of the strips aligned quite difficult, even though I had numbered them as I sliced the prints up. And, as I look closely towards the bottom of the bottom flower, there does seem to be something amiss, but hay, its all part of the learning process.
