When I first began to compose my image, I wanted to start with the textures of the still alive plants outside. However, since I was new to the process, it didn't occur to me that when I put freshly imprinted soft ground on a warm hot plate, it would melt. Undoubtably frustrated, I started over and ended up with the fish. However, I loved the way the soft ground scrap paper looked, so I used this as my first alternative surface!
