Artificial Sun Print/ Cyanotype

Wikipedia defines a cyanotype print as: a photographic printing process that gives a cyan-blue print.

My definition: I'm too lazy to experiment mixing the appropriate chemicals, and I don't have a darkroom.

Anyhow, one of the photographers that I follow had blogged about using 'tacky photo effects', and applied it to an image on his iPad. Tony Cece, I might have copied your idea. I always like trying new things, and I wanted to see if I could figure it out myself and gave the editing a go in Photoshop.

Does it look like a real cyanotype? probably not, although I'm willing to post a how-to!

Even if you might have copied the idea, it wasn't mine to begin with. Someone created this effect and it has been being used for a while. I must admit that your use turned out better than mine! I love it.

I like yours a lot better than mine - I guess everyone is their own worst critic haha. As other people might have come up with this idea, I still got this one in particular from you :-)
