Did you read the explanation of the wide range of media which give good
cyanotype rex prints? Doing so would have given you the opportunity to enjoy the
wide benefits of this new process as others have done in both the US and the
UK.
 

In order to demonstrate the range of cyanotype rex, I included both a
subtle scene with a very low subject contrast level and one with an extreme
contrast level which yet had subtlety. That on the 'cyanotype' page even enhanced
this quality with split toning. It is a pity that you appear to have missed
their qualities.
 
My alternative process workshops include sessions on the appreciation of
beauty and its relationship to technique. You could find them helpful. Where are
you ?
