Or is that "gas"
Trying Cyanotype. Mixed the classic formula. Think I will stain it in tea.
Location
Brisbane
Equipment Used
8x10 f250 pinhole camera. A woooden box with a wee little hole.
Exposure
15mins
Film & Developer
arista edu 100, pyrocat hd 2+2+100
Paper & Developer
Hahnemuhle 300 Platinum Rag 4x citric acid baths. Seems to bring out better blues with better detail than straight tap water.
Lens Filter
red
Svenedin's right about the detail & shadow. 'Compositionally more interesting than most shots of old pumps. 'Good eye.

Thanks, the blue bleached a little into the highlights, so low contrast. Need to fix that, although low contrast works sometimes. Think it would be better in brown.
Yes Mr Thomas, get out the pinhole. There are some great phone apps to work out exposure and reciprocity or you can calculate the formulas long hand, but may be time to go home by then. Oh and I think pinhole looks better if you shout off center and nice and close.
