Photogram.  This combined image is made up of four 16x20 sheets of regular black/white paper.  The paper is normally never to be taken out in the light; but in this case, I took the paper out of the container and put it directly into the sunlight.  Then I took freshly cut plant leaves, palm fronds and other material on top of the paper which was laid out in the square as viewed.  I also took a large digital negative of my head and hand and laid them on top of the paper also.  Then I layered large pieces of glass on top of everything to keep things from blowing away.  The exposure was 45 minutes in the sun.  Then I put the paper directly into a fixer, then washed and let it dry.
