These are quite old, digitally speaking. Don't do much sepia these days.

Disclaimer : This is an image of a toned cyanotype print of a previously taken image.

The original image is nothing more than a hitching post about 2000 feet up a trail at Guadalupe Mountains National Park. It happens to be at the Pine Top trail junction.

The original was converted to B/W, inverted horizontally, inverted black-to-white, and printed onto a transparent film.

The film was used as a mask on top of a cyanotype-prepped art paper surface and exposed to sunlight, creating the typical bright blue monochrome cyanotype coloration. After finishing in hydrogen peroxide, a good rinse and drying, the blue cyanotype was exposed to very low concentrations of aqueous sodium carbonate, rinsed and soaked in concentrated, but cooled, green tea for about 40 minutes. The resulting interaction changed the blue to this semi-sepia color.

Other soaks can produce somewhat purple colors, near B/W renditions, and a pronounced brown, depending on which source of tannins is employed.

I do a 'lab' of this technique with my chemistry classes each spring. We first learn the chemistry of the Talbot salt print technique (and test on it). Then we work similar voodoo with the safer (no silver nitrate) cyanotype chemistry. The results of the cyanotype are sharper usually, and FAR more consistent with no accidental cross contamination of solutions. Kids really like it, too, and the cost per kid, not counting Walmart 8x10 frames is less than 3 dollars.


Thats a wonderful project for them..

p1. The monochrome really makes the subject clear. I like what you did with #1

p.1 A very simple and effective image. It sounds like a very complicated, time consuming process.
