Field notes
The process model links material choices to visible outcomes: smooth cotton is described as crisp, while textured or thirsty papers produce softer or more uneven results. It also distinguishes sun, shade, and a 365 nm UV box, with the latter described as steady but capable of softening edges beneath thick objects. The page explains that prints emerge pale from the wash and deepen as they dry, with peroxide offered as a faster alternative.
