    A HAMMERHEAD & A SCUBA DIVER



    This Temnograph is painted with acrylic and as such has limited possibilities of variation.
  • sucker- and damsel-fishSUCKER- & DAMSEL-FISH


    Compare this picture with the background image on the screen. It is the same Temnograph.
  • sucker- and damsel-fishSUCKER- & DAMSEL-FISH


    This is the Temnograph whose yet another variation you see in the background image on these pages. Here (background Image) a plastic blue folio renders the submarine depth to the scene, a fold in the folio (top left) reflects the light (diffuse light from ordinary household lamp) conveying an impression of sunlight breaking through water.

    CORAL REEF WITH BAT & BUTTERFLY FISH


    Night Version. Spotlight from the side slightly inclined on the background and on the Temnograph from behind, thereby highlighting the drawing (the corals) on the Temnograph.
  • dolphins
     

    DOLPHINS



    This Temnograph, like the one with the scuba diver is painted with acrylic and sand on the front, and leaves no room for great variations. However this one I have manipulated with image editing software. See the section "Computer Graphics."
  • dolphin and an angelfish
    A DOLPHIN & AN ANGELFISH


    The background (crepe paper) is pushed through the cut portions of the Temnograph and modelled to give the impression of a bulging surface, giving a three-dimensional perspective to an otherwise flat surface, evident in the next picture.
