Challenges or observations:
- The thinner the paper is, the more the background looks “stained”.
- The more layers of coating, the more exposure time is needed (exponential maybe).
- This specific artwork I submitted could have been exposed a few more hours in the hot blazing sun.

Additional information: This is my first anthotype and, although it is not what I was hoping for, I am still thinking it is delicate through its imperfection.
