Exactly my thought. I'd experiment with a film "plane" (cylinder in this=

case) that is larger in diameter, that would make for a more gradual merg=

an
added bonus, shorter exposure times, a good thing if you are using
photographic paper as your negative, instead of photo film. Once I learn=

to
make galleries on pots, I will give it a go. Used to shoot pinhole camer=

in my previous life.
