I noticed it too. ❤️ Here’s my feeble attempt with my ancient iPhone 7. The main point is you stop and breath it in. 🌅😎

Building on my series of urban cyanotype prints… not to everyone’s taste. These Soho scenes are long gone and it felt right in cyanotype for some reason. #cyanotype #altprocess #believeinfilm

Interesting. I've mostly used it with Rodinal. But going over my files I see I've also used Ilfotec HC and 510 Pyro semi stand... Quite different lighting conditions and the bike shop was with a half frame camera but still I was happy with results.

I’m starting to experiment with more ‘urban’ cyanotypes prints. Thinking of presenting for sale. Would you hang this on your wall?? 🤔 #altprocess #cyanotype #filmphotography

Three wheelie bins - blue, black and green, a bench and a tomb with a paved path in foreground and railings behind. Everything is sloped downwards towards the right which if I remember correctly is how the church gardens are as the buildings in the background are horizontal.

It's the best side of the theatre. I love the signage and all the pipes. I've photographed it a few times over the years. Here's one a couple weeks ago from an accidental double exposure roll. 🫣

That is so interesting seeing your composition - here was my take on that scene. So different and love the view point you got.
