Image of the day is Paris IX, a coffee toned #cyanotype print.
I finally got to some results I like with coffee toning. This is the first (hopefully) of a series of images, one per arrondissement in Paris that I'm designing to illustrate my upcoming roleplaying game set in Paris.This is a cyanotype print on Hahnemühle Harmony Hot Press that was then toned in coffee. I did not bleach the cyanotype first, I dunked the still wet print in hot water with instant coffee in it. I agitated for a few minutes and then let it rest overnight. I'm very pleased with the tones here, although the print was not well coated (I had some brush issues) so it may be that I will redo it. I'm also working on a new print (tonight, probably).
