Ferns with Maple Leaf

I will reach 15,000 uploaded pictures with this album, so I wanted to share an alternative project. These are lumen prints. Place organic material on old photographic paper, cover with glass, expose under full sun for 3 or 4 hours, wash, tone (selenium), fix and wash. A great use for old, fogged photographic paper.

It's great! It may be called "photo-herbarium" :-)
