Back garden cyantopes

It was a beautiful, bright day with largely clear sky, so J and I seized the opportunity to try some cyanotype prints as part of her botanical art challenge. The herb robert and daisies were the second attempt; they lay on the coated paper, under glass from old clip frame, for about forty minutes before being well rinsed in a bucket of water and hung up to dry in J's bathroom. We also tried some Jack by the Hedge and goose grass, but they were a bit too bulky to lie flat and create sharp edges, so the result was rather blotchy and indeterminate. I'll share the outcome when it's dry and flattened, but expectations are not high.
