Tulip Petal Wet Cyanotype

Wet cyanotype of tulip petals and stamens on watercolour paper with single generous coat of cyanotype solution. Petals were added immediately and then splashed with vinegar and soap suds. All day exposure in gentle light both indoors and outdoors. Developed under running water and scanned without playing around with the colours, just increased the contrast. This is still early days of learning but I like the subtle tones without the cyanotype blue overpowering everything.
