If you wear a hat, know how to do it. Only women are allowed to keep their hats on in closed rooms.
@photobrake2 ай бұрын
I assume you must be close to my age as that certainly was the accepted practice years ago. I always wondered why women were allowed to wear a hat indoors and men not. Tradition I guess. I guess I've always been a bit of a rebel. I still wish people dressed up more to go to sporting events but it seems like t-shirts and ball caps are the norm. I remember going to a ball game with a sports jacket but those days are long gone. Men don't even wear a tie to church any more. Kinda sad.

Nope, what architects used until recently (well... until 30 years ago maybe) is another process.

People need to tape the edges of the glass to avoid cutting the crap out of their hands. Also, do you use negative images rather than just a copy on acetate?
@photobrake5 ай бұрын
Yes. Tape will do fine. I actually sand the edges, with a fine wet sandpaper. I forgot about that technique. Yes I print from a negative. I've been wanting to do that video, so maybe that will be next. Thanks for your comments.

Thank You for taking the time to give a simple explanation of the cyanotype printing process. I love darkroom printing, but it is a whole process I just do not want to mess with anymore. I want to simplify my whole process with less gear and workflow. One or cameras, one or two film stocks, one or two printing processes, etc. and then experimenting within those parameters. Invariably, it is always about the print for me, something tangible from the intangible, not counting my minds eye. Shooting with pinhole cameras, home developing black and white film with caffenol, and printing with the cyanotype process (or other some other alternative printing process) sounds like my speed: slow and stop, lol. Starting with smaller 120 film negatives will be my first experiments because it is what I have on hand, just cute little Prussian Blue photos. Later, I can print larger negatives like you explained. Btw, your cute cat is spoiled rotten. I have two rotten ones myself. Much obliged.

Try mixing your cyano type (A+B / A) with a 5% sollution of gelatine. It will cut your exposure by at least 50% (Light travels trough the emulsion, bounces backfrom the given support and exposes the emulsion from both sides). The gelatine cyano mix will stick to almost any material without any trouble. Also the cyano mux wont react with whatever is in your paper if you dont want to spend money on art papers. But the main advantages are are completly even contrast curve and you can use pigments within your gelatin! Yes…printing CYM with only two layers (shadows are cyano highlights will become your choosen pigment color / gold, silver black are super interesting too ). Be carefull with using clorine for boosting contrast and cyan density cause wet gelatin and clorin might not get along to well. But its not impossible. Toning your print with dye is now equaly easy cause dye and gelatine are very good friends. Got a job offer as a printing teacher today and thought i start practicing on the sofa! Good luck! Regarding pigments mixed with gelatin + plus cyano … high density of pigments of course extendes your exposure.

How do you know your exposure time? Is there any way to tell if the exposure is good while exposing? Or trial and error?

Trial and error mostly. Some folks check the color of the cyanotype but I usually just run a test on a smaller piece of paper.

Cyanotype is one of the safest printing processes out there. It could be an irritant and I always wear gloves. I always err on the side of caution when it comes to mixing it up. Water is what stops the development. Oxygen can make the blue darker. I enhance that by bathing the print in a solution of hydrogen peroxide solution and water. As far as archival, there are prints from the 1800''s that are still very vibrant although these are in a museum. Cheers
