On some I've used the actual leaves of gold, others just the "paint-type" gold. I like the results. Because they are 16 X 20s, I can't scan them and submit them, but I'll try to take some photos of the photos and let members see what they look like. A couple are going to be entered in a local exhibit. I just thought gold leafing on photographs is something some of you may not have thought of and would like to experiment with. Another self-serving report - just for the sake of conversation - yesterday I sent away a portfolio of 15 photographs and paperwork to England, in order to apply for the Associateship Distinction from the Royal Photographic Society. This is the second distinction of three. I won't know if I've earned the distinction or not for a couple of months, so I'm a wee bit nervous. What are the rest of you up to? Marilyn
