Nice work. I like your coating edges and cyano colour. Not having to make enlarged negatives would be a real treat.

Thanks David. I overexposed the print and then bleached it to reduce the intensity of the usual cyanotype blue.

very nice image!
and the tones are so suttle. However, I hope you do know, that after bleaching a cyanotype, it gets light sensitive again.(?)..
be careful not to display it in direct sun light! it will darken quickly. (been there - done that)
