Daguerrotype: |
The Cyanotype was invented by John Herschel in 1842. The chemicals used in making cyanotypes are potassium ferricyanide and ferric ammonium citrate. How I made my cyanotype: 1. I brushed on a thin layer of emulsion on top of the paper 2. I dryed my paper with a hairdryer 3. I put my negative picture in-between the dry paper and glass. 4. I exposed it to sunlight for 10 minutes. 5. I started to fix my picture by rinsing it in water until no more yellow was on the paper. 6. I finished fixing my paper by putting it in a wash with hydrogen peroxide. |
