Tricolor Gum Over Cyanotype

Looks a lot less grainy in real life, but the image area itself is only about a 3.5x4.5in.

Three digital negatives.. first cyanotype layer then yellow gum and then finally red gum.
Not totally happy with it yet as I'd like to do another three color layers to more define the differences and to fix my skin as well as add a final light black layer.

But it's getting there!

1/4 Plate Clear Glass Ambrotype

Part of The Contained Forest series. I wish I knew more about how the tone of the image is effected as this ones more of a coffee color and the previous two have been more greenish.

I wanted to do more of these today but the weather was against me.
