Thanks for the comments and suggestions from all. I was certainly surprised by the innovation from David Savage. It is a technique that is worth exploring, not only for this, but for the future. I'll also look into a crop as Jostein suggested and altering the color of the paper to some degree.
It is nice to have a group of people to get opinions and ideas from.
