Unit 32 Experimental Photography Sun Prints

Sun Prints

Materials required 
Ilford resin coated photographic paper
Ilford Hympin (1:9) solution - Sodium thiosulphate
Dark room

Method
In the dark room place paper shiny side up, onto a board 
Place objects onto the paper. I used a snow flake Christmas decoration, a butterfly, a leaf
place glass on top, tape the glass down
Expose the paper to sun for 20 - 30 minutes
Still in the dark room.
once the colour has changed , place into the fixer for 1-5 minutes

This process can be repeated using acetate with images, just dont expose to the sun too long 10-15 minutes
