fat flower

a fat flower, it was purple and had loads of leaves, I think the name began with a... I was so deperate to get them under glass I tore off the cellowrap and dumped it. Will start keeping note of things like that.
It's expired colour photographic paper coated with cyanotype chems. I gave it a really long exposure, ten hours under glass, it was dark when I remembered to take it in, it had also been raining too but didn't seem to affect it. I washed it for a while then toned it in Selenium, it's supposed to kind of fix it and gives it the brown tones. I'm going to leave it in light for a while and see if it makes a difference
Not on a diet. Great effect

Aha! That well known festival "Fleur Gras". Lovely photograph. I shall be intrigued to see if it lasts the ravages of sunlight.

Never would have guessed that it's actually purple. Coolio.
I do love your title :) I too can never remember the names of flora - fat flower and prickly bush work for me!

I like the blue. You have several images that make me think of batik. I would like them in skirts for the summer.
