Cyano toning- Vacoa-001

Cyanotype toning with dried dandelion leaves to get a back tone

Ingredients:

- 15 g of finely cut dried dandelion leaves

- 1000 ml of tap water

Operations:

Bring tap water to the boil in a kettle

- Pour over the leaves and leave to infuse for approximately 15 minutes.

- Strain and let cool to approximately 50°C.

- Place the cyanotype in the toner bath.

- Wait about 20 minutes until a black tone is achieved and the cyanotype blue has been fully replaced.

No bleaching in this case, dandelion toning seems to weaken density a bit!
