“The Cyanotype Process”

Because Cyanotype is my favorite process, as well as the one that I have explored the furthest, it is exciting and valuable to know that there are so many techniques I can use to take each cyanotype project further, to keep it interesting and to make it what it needs to be without just falling back on the anticipated results of deepish blue and white. This gives me a bit more control in the planning and outcome. There is a sad note however that mentions that the toning suggestions almost always lead to results that look better wet than dry. sad. I definitely think that some of the results become less photographic and more painterly but I find that to be an interesting and valid transformation.
