Some cyanotype

Here’s a series of cyanotype from 35mm film scanned, converted to bigger digital neg. No specific subject here. Different time for the toning in yerba mate, I guess I was patient enough for the first one, but I also like very much the metallic blue that a shorter time gives. The street of the first picture is in Beaugeancy, and this is where the workshop of an artist specialized with cyanotype on glass is located 😉

Visit a mosque

Over November and December 2021, city of Massy (France) held a coupe of photo related event. The main course was a two days exhibitions of productions from the local photo club. One of the side event was a visit of the local mosque which had a photo exhibition from Jean-François Noel. Here are a couple of picture I took during this visit. Light condition was not great at all, but with a Rolleiflex, you can shoot at 1/40 and still get something sharp enough.

Happy 2022

A couple of cyanotypes to start the new year (actually made them on Jan 1st).

Some details on the process. Classic cyanotype formula with a 10-10 concentration. Printed on CoqLeRouge paper. Developed with citric acid. Toned with Yerba mate at mild temperature (several hours infusion). Toning times are respectively 7, 10 and 15 minutes. Picture is from scanned 35mm negatives. Digital negative printed on inkjet transparent. Used the generic Christina Z Anderson correction curve. First time using it, and I like it already.
