Cyanotype shadow

I thought you might like to see the image left on the carrying paper showing the ink that bled through the Lutrador. I love the spidery effect and will use this image at some point in the future. And yes the tall lanky girl with the plaits is me!

    It's quite ghostly, isn't it. I'm sure there's a way to use it. Follow this link to Wen Redmond's work - I'm not sure exactly how she does it but she creates 'holographic' images by printing on (through?) silk organza.

    Might be worth exploring.

    Just wanted to let you know that this image has inspired me to try my hand at printing my cyanotypes on fabric and doing a little sewing. Thanks for the inspiration!

    Good luck, Jane. Hope you have fun and lots of success. Jane has already tried her hand at paper blue prints. See her website:
