Here are some examples of where I have inverted some of my prints. For such a small change, it makes a lot of difference. I really like these outcomes.
Contrasting the amount of light and dark within individual images is something to think about, especially when it comes to deciding which images face each other on a double page spread.
Later, I experimented with overlaying scans on the photocopier. Some are more successful than others.
With a lot of these overlay tests, the first scanned image turns out very light, almost grey - so it's only just a ghost of a drawing behind the top layer. Subtle but interesting.
At this point I have a huge stack of prints to work from. I plan on either making some mockup arrangements of page orders, or manipulating them digitally. It's important that any digital editing is kept to a minimum, I don't want to water down the images with filters and other stuff. I want them to speak for themselves, and maybe just add in small adjustments or digital type.
