Friday 6th Sep

On Wednesday we started experimenting with the solar paper.  I used pine needles to create abstract imagery and Madeleine used carbon paper stencil.  We climbed in a kitchen cabinet to set up our objects on to the solar paper and then exposed them to the sun.  

We exposed for  7 minutes first and got reasonable results

and decided to extend exposure time to 10 minutes 

Then realised maybe we were over exposing and dramatically reduced the time to two and a half minutes and got a fabulous result

The more you expose the less detail appears.
