The Cyanotype Thread

[andreios]

Using 4x5 negatives I find the size of the images work better with cyanotypes than with silver prints. Here is a couple of my excercizes - both in using the LF camera and making prints:





Both on Fabriano Aquarello, the latter bleached and toned in black tea for an hour or so.

AJ -I still can't see your images - just a little box with a red X in it.

The site seems to do some black magic when you never loaded an image from there… Load this once

and click through to the image - from then on, all his images should show just fine.

yes,,that might be it,
so, which site is non-problematic and reccomended for uploading images?

"The White Canoe" a teatoned cyanotype from a 4x5 neg.

PS - AJ - I can see your portrait now - I like the quiet mood.

Sly wonderful results. Are there any details on how long you toned the image with the tea?
