I have never tried a silhouette before, so I thought I would give it a try.
Blacklight...check.
Ramp of magazines...check.
Parchment paper taped to frame...check.
Elephant...hey, someone queue the Elephant!
Used invert layer in PS.
Setup in comments...as if needed.
Setup and non-inverted colors
Very cool idea, Dean. Thank you for showing the setup. I've never tried silhouette photography like this before.
Thanks for sharing the results of your experimentation Dean.
I am wondering whether other subjects may be more suited to this, perhaps something like a Bonsai tree or possibly other vegetation (fern leaf?) that have distinct and interesting form.
I haven't tried this myself, but definitely something worth considering.
