Shrine of the headless godess

Tea toned cyanotype, contact printed from a 8x10 negative made with my 100+ years Seneca view camera. This scan was done while the paper (Cartiera Magnani "Acquerello" 280 g) was still somewhat humid. The print is 100% grainless, but the paper texture is somewhat exagerated in the scanning and sharpening process.

Shot on Ilford HP5+ @ f/45 for 8 seconds (the sun was setting and the light was low, HP5+ needs a lot of reciprocity compensation and the old lens is sharper when stopped down a lot).
