Keld-Helmer Peterson
Keld Helmer-Peterson is a Danish photographer who has published many photographic books his book 'Black Noise' focuses on very high contrast abstract images that are similar to his work from the 60's. This book features many scans of black and white negatives, ink drawings, cut-up line negatives, dead spiders plants and old tapes. In many of his images he adjusted the contrast to create very stark black and white images much like what many photographer were doing in the 60's. Keld Helmer-Peterson has very carefully thought out how he would arrange his images within his books, they may have been put together because they had similar compositions or colours.

Editing my images
I used Photoshop to edit my images and make them look more like Keld-Helmer Peterson's. Within Photoshop I used the threshold tool to get the desired effect on my images.
Edited Images
This is the first black light book that I made the images were ones I had taken that were inspired by Albert Ranger-Patzch. All of the images I chose were man made structures, words or geometric shapes. I chose to put certain images together because of how they looked however, the images look different within the book when its closed and they look out of place when its been closed compared to when its opened up the images look much more coherent to one another.
