In addition to practicing traditional silver gelatin photography,Locke makea lumen prints of botanical subjects. Lumen printing is a direct process, no negative involved. he photographer places the subject matter on a piece of photographic paper and exposes it to sunlight, then runs the paper through the traditional darkroom processes. In Locke's case the results are semi abstract and dreamlike. It's almost like she's captured the ghost of a flower on paper.
