Beetroot Anthotype

Some training for World Anthotype Day (3rd Saturday in August).

 

Pickled Beetroots "atomized" with a hand mixer, dye extracted with a 50/50 solution of 96% ethanol and H2O and finally strained through a cotton cloth.

 

Glossy inkjet paper coated x 2 with the emulsion (drying in between).

 

Wine leafs.

 

Cooked for 7h in full July Nordic sunshine today.

 

Quick rinse in water and hanged to dry before scanning.

 

Slow and low contrast alternative photographic process.

I recommend Malin Fabbri's book "Anthotypes" if you want to learn more about this.
