      You can buy SPEEDBALL brand transparent sheets..like clear plastic paper. You can put them in a printer and print images on them. OR you can actually take a real film negative from like a 35mm camera.. scan it and then enlarge it and print it on to the transparent sheets. But you should be able yo print anything you want from the internet etc onto the transparent sheets and use those. It helps if you are using leaves or stuff like that to put a piece of glass over top of it if you are foung it outside in the sun..so it won't blow away. You can use paper, fabric like canvas of a t-shirt. Just experiment.

      You’ll need to invert it before printing, and then you can print it out on normal printer paper and use a tissue to wipe cooking oil over the back of the print- let it dry and it’ll be transparent :)

    • @MathieuStern
      @MathieuStern  4 роки тому +2

      Vinegar us is for making the print more graduated , don't add too much, just 8 to 10 drops.
      After that you can add hydrogen peroxide if your not patient like me, but if you just wait 24h it will become blue anyway

    Hi Mathieu! Your work, what you do here is an amazing work... You helped a lot with inspiring me (and I'm sure that you inspired all of your followers in vintage photography). What do you think? If I make some 35mm paper pieces and put some beetroot juice on them then put them in my old cmeha camera and I put it to bulb mode and shoot a couple of weeks exposure with those little beetroot papers, would it work? Or this method only works for printing exposures?😃

    • @MathieuStern
      @MathieuStern  3 роки тому +1

      IT should work, but we are speaking about weeks, and weeks, because it's winter.
      Also the beetroot will maybe start to loos pigments faster than the image will appear.
      and in the end you will have a negative.
      i would advise to do the same experiment but with cyanotype instead, it will work in days and not weeks.

    Hi! I've been trying to experiment with cyanotype for a few weeks now but every single time I go to put my pieces in the water after exposure, they completely wash out and no photos actually develop. I've experimented with exposure times, and even ordered more chemicals in case the first batch was tainted in some way, but no luck. Do you know what could be going wrong?

    • @MathieuStern
      @MathieuStern  4 роки тому

      Hello Jennifer
      maybe you didn't mix the two solution 50/50 ?
      or simply you didn't exposed enough time in the sun.
      try 15 min first in bright sun, if it don't work, try 45 min in winter sun

  • @ne0nex
    @ne0nex 3 роки тому

    So, I dunno if anyone else here has had this, but my chemicals have to be contaminated from the source I got them from (Amazon) I used distilled water and added it into each of the bottles, I use separate eye-droppers to measure out part A and part B, never using the "A" eye dropper in the "B" mixture and vice-versa, yet, when I add B to the little puddle of A in the mixing dish, it instantly turns deep blue. As a result, my exposures don't turn out right. Anyone else have similar?

      Salut Estelle, aucun soucis, le cyanotype n'est pas toxique si tu ne le l'ingèrere pas, il faut hésiter d'en avoir sur la peau, mais c'est plus a cause des taches que de la toxicité, tu peu vider le reste dans l'évier sans trop de stresse, si tu en as beaucoup a jeter alors tu peux l'apporter a un endroit qui gère les produits chimique, mais on parle de jeter plusieurs litres a la fois.
