Maybe a bit too self conscious……. but A for effort.

Viable artistic photographic techniques and expressions.

And of course like works that many others her on LFF do.

I like the images. thanks. I think it's greatly unnecessary sensationalism to say she made them with cyanide which they assume people will think of cyanide pills and cyanide gas, etc...

Yes, the article ties into the massive ignorance of chemistry as something woodo and dangerous. Still I though the article served a purpose by giving some space, in a mainline magazine, to traditional photography and the idea of a of a one-off photographic image.

I should have called the thread "Interesting EXPOSURE of Cyanotype".
