Anthotype is a simple process of extracting pigments from plants, drying them on paper, and bleaching photos with light and a negative.

Post your own anthotype experiments. It would be cool to find the best plants for making photos.
Negatives can be made by using leaves, printing or drawing on clear plastic sheets, tracing paper.
(Using oil to make a piece of paper with the image clear, might be another possibility, experiment!)
How about using multiple plant pigments for multiple colors?! coming soon...
