Cyan

Make it Cyan!

Why not! I came across the work of Allan Jenkins and his cyanotypes and was immediately intrigued by the emotion they evoke. Since I was not ready yet to try the Cyanotypes process, some digital alternatives were the path to go. When printed on Cold press paper these pictures really come to live.

During the oil sessions I was always thinking of applying old technique on the pictures (collodium and cyanotypes). From the beginning it was clear for me I had to simulate the result. First because my practical knowledge using these techniques is limited. Secondly because I would need to use slow shutter speeds, which was not possible (not enough light and to much movement). Enjoy the result.
