When coating with cyanotype there are often brush-marked edges I choose to remove.

Today I'm using these edge strips, from watercolour paper, to make a composite background.

I'm then using multiple layers of tissue paper edges to make an abstract 'paper negative'.

This is all held in a contact frame to expose for several days. Maybe a week.

Started some #metamorphogram (cyanotype mixed with origami) images.

Folded from archival tissue paper, which results in poor origami, but the image will be what I need.

Maple leaf, by Peter Engel. Argonaut and Flat Shell w/10 segments by Tomoko Fuse.

Exposing for... a while... in a contact frame.

Ably assisted by Border Collie.

With the advent of AI I am more committed than ever to showing the evidential marks of analog photography practice. 6x8 Contact Print - Dektol 1+1 - Ilford MGIV FB - Omega B66 enlarger

When Love Breaks Down.

Sibling image to 'Absence Makes The Heart Lose Weight (Yeah)'

Exposed for about a week in late summer.

I used a custom-made contact frame of 70 x 50 cm to hold everything in place for so long.

Even after a week, some leaves have let no UV light through.

Title from a Prefab Sprout song. https://youtu.be/fMYbD7kK7fI
