Photo of two etched shiny photopolymer plates of a wasp with carbon black printing ink remaining in the lines.

A day testing the exposure settings of the UV unit, using digital inkjet negatives printed on Solar fast film. Paper. Arttec ‘Como’ 210 gsm.
Exposure intervals of 1 minute.

Hmm, I’ll use a more tonally diverse negative next.

I’ve just noticed faint, regular banding across the prints. The same image exposed to sunlight also has the lines, so it must be the inkjet negative and not the UV unit. Hopefully.

Playing with my UV exposure unit. 2 minute exposure . Inkjet printed negative on 110 gems paper.
Looks like dust is becoming my enemy:)

@GenHumInst thanks. It’s looking that way. I thought hashtags drive the fediverse so maybe I’m hitting offline moments between the servers. It will sort out:)

I’ve posted on aus.social with hashtags that don’t appear searchable from this instance ( mastodon.cloud). Is there a delay? #support

Whoops, no picture

A photo of the civic street of Geelong showin brutalist architecture (structural strength) and the new art centre (soft plastic form expressing a raised curtain).

If I paste the same toot on mastodon at roughly the same time, does it disappear?

A wonderful clash of times… Victoria is where it happens…

A Lino cut doodle called ‘lizard bird’ or alternatively, “Humpty Dumpty bird sat on a wall”…an obscure reference to Twitter.

A black and white Lino cut print of an imaginary bird perched on a patterned abstract wall.

Expressing the fracturing of my favourite bird site with a Lino cut. The intended print run, called ‘ Lizard bird’ , faces a few iterations . Not sure where it will end.

Hello, is it the case that #hashtags are not shared across the #fediverse ? The 2 instances I belong to appear not to. #question
