**Departure by Thomas Hager** 600x793 cyanotype on paper
Hager first editted the original photo by superimposing the skeleton over the original image of the figure, and then used the editted photo to create the cyanotype image. This cyanotype uses the subject to fill the frame, making the figure the sole focus. Also, by superimposing the skeleton over the figure, the bones create leading lines. The work utalizes the cyanotype's blue tones to create a ghostly image. The pose of the figure creates movement and rhythm in the piece.

**Cecilly and the Moon by Rosie Emerson** cyanotype on paper (75cm round)
Emerson used a film photo as well as placing grass directly on top of the cyanotype treated paper to create a miz of cyanotype and photogram. Emerson uses the grass photogram to frame the figure in the background. This piece utilizes the texture and lines of the grass to create depth. Because the photogram leaves the paper entirely white where it was covered, the grass isn't really shadowed, making it appear closer to the forground in comparison.

**Even by Night the Sky is Blue** by Laurie Snyder cyanotype quilt 80"x70"
Snyder printed multiple images onto fabrics that she wove together to create a collage of cyanotypes. Snyder also used pearls to add to her photos and create leading lines and frames around the subjects. The composition of the photos gives the piece unity and movement.
