Photographer Binh Danh has discovered a way to convert found photos from the Vietnam war into large digital negatives, and then "print" them onto the surface of live leaves using sunlight and the chlorophyll in the leaves to create the image. The living print is then made permanent by embedding it in a block of clear resin.
His choice of subject matter, together with the shapes of tropical leaves that often echo the shapes in each photograph, creates an effect that is haunting and emotional.
