cyanotype0009 - a photo on Flickriver

cyanotype0009

            As part of my on-going experimentation with the cyanotype process I thought it would be interesting to try making negatives using an Impossible Instant Lab and Polaroid Originals I-Type film.

To make a transparent negative you start off by making a Polaroid print using the Instant Lab using an image that has been reversed in Photoshop. You then trim off the white border from the print, separate the layers and then put the transparent plastic top layer carrying the emulsion layer in a tray of hot water for a few seconds to get rid of the white rubbery stuff that sits on top of the emulsion layer.

You have to be careful to leave the plastic layer in the water just long enough to remove the white rubbery stuff, but not long enough to actually lift the emulsion layer of the layer entirely (though if that happens you could make an emulsion lift print!)

But the emulsion layer does lift slightly which is where the watery ripples  in these prints come from.
