Think about and explain the results.

Were the results what you expected? How, or how not?

What did you learn about how light reacts with certain chemicals?

These were exposed for 2 minutes under the UV-lamp.

Sunprint Sample - Black and white negative with flowers

This was exposed for approximately 25-30 minutes near a window with sunlight shining into it. Since the sunlight was far away and going through a glass window it needed to be exposed for longer.

When the picture came out of the oven, it was what we

expected it to be but when we dipped it into the water it

was vastly different. It was interesting and so cool to see how the

image changed.

What a neat way that the light interacted with the chemicals. We were amazed.

What a fun surprise when the image changed in the water. That was our favorite part.

We were not surprised that the paper turned white under the light because we know that light tends to bleach things. However, we were surprised that when we rinsed the print in water, the background turned blue and the "shadows" turned white.
