Making a Cyanotype over Palladium Print

In this video I take you through my steps in making a cyanotype over palladium print. I use the cyanotype layer to accent the palladium by cooling down the shadows while leaving the warmth inherent to palladium in the highlights creating a spilt-toned effect.
Very Special Thanks to Hahnemühle USA for their fantastic papers and support. I use all Hahnemühle papers in these videos because they are quite simply the best for what we do.

Bill - very nice video.

Once again Bill you got my creative juices flowing. I have a Pt/Pd project going right now. I think I'll follow it with this overcoating technique on some of the prints. Thank you for your videos.

Fascinating, Bill. Thanks for sharing!

Terrific video! This was very well presented and will undoubtedly be my next project when time permits.

As a photographer I always carry a camera(s), sometimes it happens to be my Max Pro 12 - makes fantastic photos and videos .

Great video. I'd like to play around with this. Thank you

Better question is WHY, (initially), would you want to print cyanotype over a platinum print? A first impression is that this would be like pouring Kool-Aid into Dom Perignon. ** The IMAGE leads the process. ** That said, you did pull the blueish tone back and it does work for THIS image. Best of all, you understood what you were doing and WHY you were doing it. Well done.

Love the video, Bill! Thanks. Quick question- are you putting the pt/pd through all the clearing baths and allowing to dry overnight before applying cyanotype chems?

[@CigarManGarth]

I love the creativity, but in the end after Lightroom, you end up with a synthetic version of the original picture,,,,,,,,, aaaaaarg, I guess I'm too much of a purist in one way or another. Excellent video! Well presented! Thank you Sir.

Bill, I did not see you apply a correction curve to the image. Did I miss something?
