Cyanotype: Historical and alternative photography

This is a well designed book with fine illustrations on every page. It seems every aspect of the Cyanotype process is covered from mixing solutions, choosing papers, and toning. Oak bark, tea, and coffee can be used for toning, for example. There are also directions for two-color prints. This a great book for those who grew up in the computer age and want to try antique photographic processes and those, like myself, who studied photography in the 1960s and used 4 X 5 Crown Graphics. I have one and want to start using it again with the Cyanotype process. Cyanotype was discovered in 1842 by British astronomer John William Frederick Herschel. He also discovered fixing solution. How is that for going back to basics?

What an incredible, concise, thorough yet relatively simple guide. I "met" Peter on FB, and he is very knowledgeable, and his books are amazing in their presentation. I purchased his "Easy Digital Negatives" since I was having issues with some other very technical methods, and his approach did the trick.I liked EDN so much that I went out and purchased this book. Looks like I'll be creating with Cyanotypes! Thanks Peter!

Strong support for all the basics today of how to use the Cyanotype process.

It's a good guide to help starters to develop and improve their skills on alternative photography. It's an easy reading book.

Wonderful easy to understand reference for the art of making Cyanotype prints. Great for beginners with very clear and easy to follow instructions. Also has enough material to provide new techniques for those with experience in this alternative process.

A good and practical introduction, with enough technique to keep you going for years. Dont be putoff by the too often repeated worship of the unnamed "Masters".

This book gives a thorough explanation of printing using the cyanotype process. I am really looking forward to getting started!

The best comprehensive guide to cyanotypes that I've been able to find. Easy to read, yet thorough. Highly recommended! .

Très bon livre écrit en anglais. J’ai apprécié ce livre il couvre en entier tous ce que l’on doit savoir du débutant au mode confirmé avec des explications claires. C’est le condensé idéal de ce que l’on trouve sur le net à condition de faire des recherches poussées. Livre édité en France
