Vanity (alt cyanotype version)

Cyanotype. Contact printed from a 4x5 negative on a hand coated emulsion, then exposed for UV light (the sun) for over an hour. The picture was very lightly bleached in sodium bicarbonate. It was exposed under the sun at -18 to -20 C, as the other cyanotype, but for a bit shorter and greater care was taken to keep the paper flat despite the cold. (Uploaded January 26, 2004).
