Re: POP paper and it's initial and final colours

hi,
uv printer and sun have different spectral composition. using different light
frequency you have a different result. intensity may also play. i.e. for
salted paper (from The Albumen & Salted Paper Book):
The higher the proportion of blue light and the lower the proportion of
yellow light the exposure source contains, the greater will be the tendency
toward a softer, flatter print. The greater the proportion of yellow and the
less blue the exposing source contains, the greater will be the tendency
toward a more contrasty print, but, of course, with an accompanying
lengthening of exposure time.
cleary every alt photo process has a different spectral reponse
