Rose with new edit

I found an article on Digital Photography School about turning an image into a cyanotype. ( https://digital-photography-school.com/digital-cyanotype-using-photoshop/ ). My oldie moldie version of Photoshop didn't have all the features as described in the article. However, the rule of thumb in PS is that there is way more than one way to achieve anything. I did have fun, for the most part.
Here is the original image: ( https://365project.org/joysabin/365/2016-05-08 )

Thanks for the link, I'll see if I can adapt for Affinity but I am enjoying doing real cyanotypes at the moment too

Very beautiful! There's an old Hercules movie about a blue rose. =)

What a great edit! I once read a very poignant article entitled "The Blue Rose" about a special child.

I really like this end result. Have to Google Cyanotype to get some ideas. It is a lovely outcome with the wonderful soft glows and darker edges. :)

Thanks for your link to the workshop - it was really helpful for the basic steps. Especially with your "Rule of Thumb" idea! :)
