It's a Rayograph originally done as an 8x10. What do you think of it?

Can you post a better version of it? The .gif compression isn't very kind.

I just did some photograms like this too.

Neat idea with the pins.

I hate the term "rayograph" though. Photogram is a much more generic term, rayograph sounds ridiculous.

its not compression, its the small color palette.

coupled with dithering of course. or even better if dithering is turned off.

Isn't a reduced colour palette and dithering a form of file/image compression?

Kind of a manual form of compression, but only in the same way that cropping or resizing is. It's not .gif's fault that he reduced it to 5 levels of grayscale before saving it.

True. In a similar way I've seen some jpgs with much better colour reproduction and balance between compression and IQ when someone takes the effort to learn how to get the most out of it. Spitting the files out on standard settings without tweaking doesn't always give the best results.

Sorry there is a better verion of it. (Just so you dont have to look for the other post, since my pc messed up)

I've had a bad habit of calling it a Rayograph rather than Photogram since I first learned about them in highschool.
