gumoil prints

Here are a few gumoil prints of sunrise at Angkor Wat in Siem Reap, Cambodia

1.5 minute exposure. Highlights cleared in first bleach bath (etching) and then a coat of Payne's Gray.

2 minute exposure. I left this one in the bleach a bit too long and all the gum cleared. I left the highlights as they were.

45 second exposure. My favorite. The bleach cleared just enough for the second color (Payne's gray) to fill in. The second bleach then cleared the highlights in the clouds and the waterlilies.

Anyone who knows Angkor Wat will recognize that I forgot to reverse the positive before printing and ended up with a horizontally flipped image.
