Hi Christine. How recent is this image? I thought the EU has banned Bichromates. When the weather warms up next spring I will be experimenting using Diazo in place of Bichromates. This image could use another layer to boost the contrast. Just my humble opinion which can be ignored, of course.
Hi again, Christine. I enlarged the image a see it was done in '89. How are you doing work now? Check out Diazo Gum on the net.
I'm still making gum bichromate prints and buy the chemicals in Barcelona!
I have an Instagram page where you can see more recent work....
