A very well executed video, thanks Adam; does it matter what paper the picture is printed on, in order to get a good amount of light?

[@adambowie]

Obviously, the thinner the paper the better. I was actually using a transparency here - a bit like a photographic negative. So light coming through was no problem. If you just used a regular photographic print, I'm not sure it would work very well since regular print paper is too thick to let much light through. Good luck!

Is your image transparent?

[@adambowie]

The image is a transparency. Mine is preprinted, but this might still work if the paper your image is printed on was thin.
