Posted By: Kerrowdown, 03-14-2016, 03:09 PM

I can't see past the qualities that this process brings to my landscapes at the moment.

this process
Are you referring to giving your image the look of cyanotype in digital post-processing or are you actually making cyanotype prints on paper? Either way, it's a great image that is definitely suited to the "look" of cyanotype, but I can help wondering what it looks like at a bigger size than 800 pixels by 450 pixels on a so-so computer monitor. Can you send me a 10 x16 print on good paper as an attachment to an email?

Aye... I mean done in post, long gone are my days messing about with chemicals in dark places, I contract out any of my printing requirements to a print house.

Definitely, but the royalty cheques are very slow coming; might be blood & stone problem.

Aye, it's the only castle I've got right on my doorstep, apart from Castle Kerrowdown that is.

Aye, Mr Grant has some strange ancestral rights issues going on here... he needs to have a quiet word with the current owners, Historic Scotland and see if they'll share the spoils.
