Success! Well, mostly! :)
Again, I used the Reives BFK. Had some minor problems with my sponge-type brush disingtigrating on the last application, which showed up very clearly in the final print.
But everything turned out this time. I still didn't see the beautiful contrast range in the images I viewed online. What I produced were a bit more stark in appearance. I think we may be using the traditional cyanotype- this I intend to find out this week.
Its an interesting process, but I'm not sure how I feel about 'all that blue'. I'm thinking about trying the VanDyke process next.
Oh, yeah: It's definately much, much easier doing this on a sunny day! Thank you all for your suggestions and advice, once again.
Cheers,
Shelley
