I also do a few facing north, and they show a remarkable level of detail, considering there's no camera lens involved.
These serve no purpose other than to make me insanely happy. It's a beautiful world we live in, despite all the turmoil, and I am taking a moment to experience joy. #pinholecamera

The streaks in the sky mark the passage of the sun across the sky over the six month period and clearly show the difference in altitude as the seasons progress. They vary in strength and intensity in correlation with the weather and cloudiness on any given day.

I add a lid and tape the whole assembly shut, then use zip ties to mount them in various places. I then forget about them for 6 months, until harvesting and replacing them at the next solstice. They fit in well with my main body of work that requires sunlight and patience.

It’s made from ground up granite and a binder. It’s got a slick surface that allows the chemicals to move around a bit during exposure and create cool patterns. The brand I’ve been using is Yasutomo.

I also made a set of prints on mineral paper. I'm very happy with the patterning on the fabric print, and the swirly bits on the paper prints. I love how even somewhat mundane leaves are transformed with this process. More on my blog, link in comments. #cyanotype #wetcyanotype

Thank you! I have favorite bridges I revisit often, the light changes and there’s always new angles to admire. Have fun with your bridge!

I then sent it off for special processing (don't use a regular lab, it will mess up their chemistry) and these are the results.
I'm finding that in general, dish soap, which is a base, gives a very different vibe than lemon/lime juice, which is an acid.
