Do It Yourself Lumen kit for postcards.

Create lumen prints using an analog photographic process. No darkroom needed, just this kit and some sunbeams!

With this kit, you can experiment with an analog photographic technique that works with the sun: lumen printing. You are essentially going to do everything that is normally forbidden with light-sensitive darkroom paper. So it is fun, surprising, and also a little mischievous. ??

A reaction takes place between the light-sensitive paper and the sun: where the sun falls on the paper, it takes on a pink/purple and beige/grey tinttruly luminous! Unexposed areas remain white. This allows you to create beautiful rosy purple images.

You can place all kinds of objects on the treated paper, such as natural materials. Just put it in the sun for a moment and you will see it change color! With this kit, you can mix and apply the photographic materials yourselfenough for the postcards in the kit and a little extra to experiment further on your own.

Instructions in the kit are in Dutch, English, French, German, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, and Japanese.
