PHOTOGRAPHING A HUMAN HEAD UPON A TABLE.
DIAGRAM SHOWING APPARATUS.
After making these arrangements an exposure is made, then the person whose head has been photographed is no longer required. The top door, C, is now closed, and the bottom door, D, is opened wide. By this means the upper part of the plate is protected from a second exposure and leaves the way clear to expose the lower, and as yet unexposed, part of the plate. The shutter is again opened, and this time everything in range of the lens below the edge of the table is photographed, and, of course, does not show the person under the table. The [illustration] which we give, as well as the [diagram] showing how it may be produced, are the work of Mr. James Burt Smalley, of Bay City, Mich.
