Anna Atkins learned directly from talbot about the photogenic drawing technique, which is when an object is places on light-sensitised which is exposed to sun to produce an image.
Below is just one of the many pictures Anna created....... Some people claimed she was the first female photographer,when others claimed talbot, the wife of William fox was the first female photographer. Its good that Anna Atkins learned how to do the photogenic drawing technique so it wouldn't really matter if she couldn't get her hands on a camera she was still able to make nice pictures of the thing she wanted. |

This is one of my favourite pictures because it uses things with a nice texture and its own shape. I like the way they are put together making a pattern.
