Cyanotypes

Had my first play using cyanotypes. Great fun, I have a few more sheets made up for the kids to have a play with. Seen you can place negs on top of the paper and make positive images that way also. Anyone else played with these?

I finally got around to using the freebie one that came in my Sept/Oct wonderbox. It wasn't very big so I put a 6x9 neg on it (could have used a 5x4 just) It came out looking pretty sweet.

Many years ago I bought some plastic sheets for printing negs onto to make larger cyanotypes and then, of course, never got around to it. Heaven knows where I put the box...
