Scanners, Flowers and Art
Photographer Alex Waterhouse-Hayward is a supporter and good friend of UBC Botanical Garden (as an example, he donated his photographic talents as an item for the garden's recent Collectors' Plant Auction).
Alex has recently written an engaging article in The Tyee called Getting Rid of the Box. The piece details Alex's discovery and subsequent use of a flatbed scanner in producing digital images, accompanied with a brief history of photography and a small photo gallery of his work.
