My first gum print try
I manage to print this photo with gum printing at last. You can find more details about the print at my blog.

That's quite interesting. The gum brings out a grittiness that suits the subject.

Actually reason of grittiness is surface of paper. It has a textured surface.

Fine first effort! I often feel the tug of alt-processes - many, though, use chemicals I don't want to pour in my septic system. Well done.

Great result (and image ) on your first try. Did a lot of gum printing back in the day when I had access to making enlarged negatives. It was so much fun. Might be time to take it up again.

Thank you very much. If you arrange your conditions, I highly suggest to make a such print. It is very joyful thing.

Well done for exploring this process Taylan! I'm now considering maybe using this with 10x8" pinhole negs, hmmmm, interesting.

Something I've know about but never had the guts to do it...I'm impressed...

I read your blog...it answered the question I had about how you chose that image...

Some day I want to give this a try...you've inspired me to investigate this process...

Good job!
There is a misleading situation that I have to correct. I didn't made the paper. Someone else in UK made it and I just bought it . I only apply the light sensitive solution on paper.
