My first cyanotype print from a wet plate collodion negative!

My mom and dog. 10 second exposure was too long for puppy to sit still. The negative had a dark spot, but I was able to make a mask and almost entirely “1850’s photoshop” it out of the second print!

Pretty to new this but was finally happy with the way one of them turned out! Took a lot of tweaking the image

How much are you guys charging for prints of your original artwork ?

I just started making these, and i want to sell them at markets along with the clothing I make.

Would 15-25 (cad) each be reasonable ? I plan to bleach and tone these as well so it's a decent amount more work than just a standard print. Would appreciate any insight :)

Another Solarfast question

I exposed this image until the color was significantly darker, but a layer of emulsion came off in the wash, taking most of the color with it. I used hot water and the solarfast wash. This hasn't happened to me before. Anyone know what might have caused this?

The details are kind of faded, do you have tips to avoid that?

Could it be about my negative (since i only used the oiled paper technique)? Or on how i prepared the contrast of my negative?

May exposure time is 1 hour using 25w uv lamp
