Thank you all, Cyanotypes are a possibility but I am really looking into
the anthotypes for the back to nature sort of idea also. The school is
reall looking for a real organic, back to nature experience.
I find the blueberry idea intriguing,since we are in blueberry country. I
am wondering if cooking them down might be an advantage as the raw interior
is not that intense. I will experiment..
Jalo , 4 days .. wow..
