Ice Lumens by Marge Bradshaw

🥶Too cold and grey to spend time outdoors taking pictures? 

Don’t be discouraged: WIP member Marge Bradshaw shares an experimental approach to staying creative and embracing winter with her ice lumen process. 

With simple materials and a little patience, you can create one-of-a-kind prints influenced by frost and snow. Get outside, have a go, and share your results!

We’d love to see your results! Share your experiments via Instagram using #icelumen and #rpswomeninphotography.
