Hi to all,

Below you may find the link to my first cyanotype:

I was expecting to make a print with a tonality similar to this one below:

Yep, this is a failed one (but pretty nice for the first try). I think this
is due to the high contrast of the enlarged negative I've made using Liam
Lawless' method + the lack of a hinged contact printing frame to check the
exposure. It seems that I have to do many tests in order to find the correct
contrast-density for the enlarged negative. I will try the dijital negative
method + some good-for-silver pinhole negatives next weekend...

Best regards,
Loris.
