Sun Printing

We actually had sun yesterday in the Pacific NW. I managed to do two sun prints before helping with the deer fence. Today it is raining again.
Living in the woods gives me access to lots of ferns, so I used two types on this piece and Setacolor Transparent paint. It has to be the transparent type to sun print.

The resists on this one are the leaves from a weed. I used one pin in each to hold them in place. There wasn't any wind so that worked. I like the shadows that create different values when the pieces are not totally anchored down.

Thanks to everyone who comments. It's fun to hear from people.
