Sandy,
Before sending to SC for crow (was that Clemson in the Gator Bowl, she
asked innocently?), figure I'll at least check cyanotype again. (Maybe
cosmic radiation from reduced ozone layer has reversed effects, you know
how it is.) Am curious tho, why you picked the "cool white" bulbs. I did
get through to GE today (Westinghouse seems out of business) & they'll
send me chart on spectral sensitivity of the daylight bulbs which
apparently have much more energy in the 400's than the cool bulbs do.
Whatever, congratulations to you on a *super* project....

Which of course suggests adjusting bulb assortment for negative type.
Forget variable contrast film, you could have variable contrast lighting!
