That reminds me, I meant to comment on your carbon prints, and thank you for sharing them. I found these interesting in that they didn't seem, to my eyes, to be as continuous-tone as the back-exposed gum prints on transparency film you showed a year or two ago (could it have been that long?). Do you think it's the thickness of the glass, or that the negatives aren't a similar contrast range, or is it just the scans that aren't picking up subtleties of tone?

All,
Here is my work from yesterday. These are two color carbons on glass, back exposure of various botanicals.
