In Camera Cyanotype Tutorial Alternative Process Photography
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 15 ต.ค. 2019
- Cyanotypes are meant to be left in direct sun, not in a camera but by making educated guesses and common sense experimentation I am able to get very interesting images in my Rolleicord and Mamiya M645. I recently started using a pre treated paper called nature print paper, find the amazon link in description which gives much better results and I can actually rinse them. here is a Flickr album with the improved images.

Cool stuff! I just got a 4x5, might need to give this a shot!
Thanks for stopping through PNG, Ive never tried large format Id like to try a linhoff. if you ever shoot a tutorial holler at me.
Great video I know I might be a little late but you can actually develop those negatives with 7% vinegar 1/1 with water. That's at least what worked for me so you can use those negatives to actually make a positive!
So, you rinse the negative with the solution and let dry?
Great stuff! I have also been experimenting with a Rolleicord and cyanotype, and I have found that you can get permanent washed images, but they take a lot longer - 2-3 hours for non-backlit image.
This is the best video I've seen on this process. Technical, thoughtful and inspirational.
You seem so passionate about photography and I can tell how much fun you had doing these experiments.
Amazing research, congratulations. I've been struggling looking for a video like this one of yours... It just came to my mind that in camera cyanotype should be possible and I'm so happy I found your confirmation. Thanks a lot!
i love your passion for these creative processes & im rly grateful that u dedicate so much time & energy to sharing what u have learned. ur video format is rly helpful to follow along w the details but still stay engaged.
I appreciate how much care you put into your videos. Thank you for all of this wonderful information! You are amazing.
Hello Brittany thanks so much, youre getting me choked up now why you do this to me lol.
This is awesome, really appreciate the time you put into this. Super cool looking results, can’t wait to try
Thanks! I learnt a lot. I also realized by accident that the thinner coating worked better . Thanks for confirming that. Really nice images!
I put it into my 4x5 view camera several years ago. Worked great.
I also made paper negative and a few contact prints from the paper negative.
Loads of fun.
Great video.
Very inspiring! Thank you for this video. We looked for the material needed to try cyanotype and your videos kept our attention because of the in camera method. Your pictures are so moody, so beautiful 👌
Thank you so much for this video ! I wanted to do that a few weeks ago but didn't try because I didn't want to get negtive images, but you motivated me ! Keep on going, you gained a subscriber :)
Thank you for being inventive in the technique. Most people never try Cyanotype photography, but your images are attractive. I've used full 8x10 coated paper and static objects placed under an old picture frame. Well done!
Very nice video! You have unusual ideas, love them!
Hello Ray. I’m a little late to the party on your video here and I don’t normally comment on videos. However, I feel compelled to write to let you know how inspirational your video was! You’ve saved me a lot of time and hassle. But above all, you’ve motivated me to try this!
Congratulations on your various trials to get the desired results. I also liked the way you gave credit to those photographers, before you, who’ve developed this technique and from whom you’ve derived the ideas to use in your own work. Well done indeed!! 👍⭐️⭐️⭐️
Great video mate helping heaps with my own Cynotypes!
This video was extremely helpful...thank you for taking the time to do this. You gave good tips, speak clearly and do not have background music. And your neighborhood image is amazing and as you said it does have a mood that's difficult to describe. The trees definitely frame the image and it looks like it was taken in the late 1950's. I also love the low placement of the houses and expanse of sky with the trees. Seriously, I would mat and frame that.
Hello thank you so much I'm glad this was helpful. I actually found a better way to do this using a pre treated paper called nature print, it retains the image after rinsing and gives accurate white and blue. I put links in the description, here's some photos taken with it. Hope this helps

Really enjoyed this video! Keep making content please. Our family loves your creativity.
Lovely presentation, well explained and nice to see how this is open to everyone. 👍🏽
Hello Anthony thanks so much, I have recently found a much better way to do this using a pre treated paper called nature print paper, the good thing is when you rinse it the image is retained and the paper becomes truly white making the final image scan and inversion look as it should. the paper can be gotten on amazon, here is a link to my FLickr album using it. flic.kr/s/aHsmPbjPdG
Great video man! I really enjoyed seeing what others are doing with in camera cyanotypes. Keep it up.
Hello thank you. I hand spooled a roll of nature print onto a 120 roll so I'll be trying my Mamiya m645 ,having 2.8 instead of 3.5 should help with a darker negative print
This is really terrific. Thanks for posting. I recently got a toyo 4x5 and had not thought about making cyanotypes with it. Now I can't wait to give it try.
Hello thanks so much Aimee. It's an advanced thing so take your time and learn from each print. Let me know how it goes.
these images look almost poetic in their simplistic beauty. and the water tower is right out of a science fiction story, very etherial! just yesterday I bought Jacquard cyanotype purple and am looking forward to experimenting with it. thanks for this great video. your creative curiosity benefits us all!
Ray, thanks for making this. I found it really interesting. Btw, that is one beautiful Rolleicord; it looks like it just left the factory.
Hello Ian thank you yes many of these old cameras are mechanical gems. Once I rested it on a fence and a strong wind blew it to the ground in some grass and gravel my heart stopped, wasn't broken but has a few small scratches.
I really like the way you shared your thoughts on the shots. Great detail. Your cadence is great. Your voice is relaxing. Subscribed!
Hello thanks much Casey, honestly I need to do a follow up to this because I found a pre treated paper called nature print that makes my coating process obsolete as you can rinse it and get pure whites. check out this photo album of the updated images im getting. I think I put info where to get it in the description also.
flic.kr/s/aHsmPbjPdG
Amazing Ray! I just got the idea about to take the photos this way and looking for someone with the same idea. Thank you for this. So glad I can see someone like you. Pure inspiration. I will try with my 100 type camera. Can't wait. Regards from Czech Republic
Love it! I myself am experimenting with in-camera anthotypes. My best anthotype paper is still far less sensitive than cyanotype paper (requiring multiple-day exposures in a homemade camera for very poor results), BUT it responds well to a wide range of light colors and not just UV. I'm still hopeful I will succeed in getting a good image. Your video was beautifully presented and inspiring. Thank you.
I'm glad you tried in camera cyanotypes. Great idea.
This is very cool! Thank you for sharing your journey.
Hello thank you, I actually started using a pre treated paper called nature print, its much better as you can rinse it and the image remains. I put a link in the description.
I've been wanting to try this for a long time with an old film camera. I know a lot more now and am going to do it soon. Thanks!
Thank you.
There were people who advised for choosing a frame where the sun is behind the camera, now i see the difference
Just came to this via search. Instant subscriber. So well done!
Such a shame you seem to have stopped two years ago 😢
This is very inspiring! Great episode!
Wow, great work , Ray. I love the organic look you got. Sometimes it's the imperfections that create the beauty. You gotta get some palm trees with that process.
Thanks Ted and I agree about the palm trees I actually set up for a set of palm trees one morning outside the job I was at and my client showed up early so I had to shut down the camera only 2 minutes and the image was useless. Hard to find time in a busy work week . I'm gonna work at fine tuning them though.
Wow I love this! Gonna try it in my 4x5 camera when my chemicals arrive in the mail today :) thanks for making this video, I’m looking forward to watching more of your videos.
.LOL thanks so much yelling that's funny you said that because a subscriber gifted me a 4 x 5 last week it's called in Newton New view. I'm in a field right now doing a in-camera of that same windmill for my first test. One thing I have to say is I instead using the chemicals to coat my paper I started buying a pretreated paper called nature print.what is incredible about it is the image remains on the paper even after yourinse it so the color is romaine accurately white and blue instead of yellow. look at the link to my Instagram I have some sample images shot using that paper.

Beautiful photos and awesome experimentation. Thanks for sharing your process!
Hello Alice thanks for stopping by and taking the time to leave a comment. You and my mother have the same name by the way
Your video has helped me so much! You made a great video! Thankyou 😊🧡
"There's silhouettes in your area that I don't get in my area." great job! Thanks! Good production.
Apple thanks man I really appreciate that. I'm always trying to think out the box lol
this is fascinating, thanks so much for making this :)
i watched your videos lots of times and i tried with my flexaret, thank you so much !
Hello thank you so much, please let me see some of your results and I don't know if you saw the notes in the video but I'm getting much better results with a pre-treated paper called nature print because it allows me to rinse
Awesome! I'm gonna try it now too! Thanks for the information!!!
Thank you! I loved this lesson
Thanks Dustin. You're one of the few guys who commented on this. Glad it was helpful.
This was very interesting! Thanks for sharing this technique.
Never thought of in-camera cyanotypes, thanks for pointing this out :)
I’m using the same camera I already had. Missed the comment on washing so all my earlier efforts failed. Lots of sun later in the day. Thanks for showing this method. Lots of inspiration.
Enjoyed your video. Nice alternative processing, Love the cyanotype. Waiting to see more.
Mark
Thank you. Good looking out. Your name sounds familiar
I love it! I'm going to try it myself!
You say you're not an expert... For me you're a master 💙
Thanks Ray you are a creative and smart dude!!!
Hello thanks for checking this out it's one of my longest videos. there's a lot more things I would like to try I just don't have the time or the equipment 😞
Nicely done, thank you!
Ray you do such a wonderful job explaining these techniques. I need more videos. I am so glad that I found and subscribed to you. God bless you and keep up the great work. I look forward to the next video.
Hello thank you so much, yes I pull my hair out when I watch tutorials that aren't clear so I try to be easy to understand. Definitely check out my latest video it's a full cyanotypes tutorial on doing it with paper, fabric and photographs. Thanks for your support
@@Raychristofer I Have already watched all your videos that I have interest in. That is why I need more. Ray you have the talent, the voice and the patience for this. I cannot wait until more people catch on. You will be a great success and I will be here watching it happen. 😊❤🥰
@@NeitherYouNorIAreRight hey thanks so much. Some of these videos take as much as 3 weeks to put together so I'm not able to upload is often but thanks for your support 😊
Cool! Love the result!
Thanks for stopping by Miss Eva I love them too. I don't have as much time as I would like to do them but I'm going to try to fine tune the process
Brilliant!
Very well done, Ray. Exciting to get some lessons, tips and a good back story/education on this kind of thing. I enjoy shooting "slow" and this certainly falls into that realm. And it's oId school-cool!
Thanks UP. Of course the limiting factor is having to leave your camera out for a good while switch to eliminate a lot of photos if you can't tend to it. That's why a lot of folks make homemade Pin hole cameras and put them in trees and stuff
Stunning !!!
Loved this video! Thank you!
Hi Ray,
This is a wonderful video and a highly interesting idea and process. I like to experiment myself and I'll try it out soon.
Hello thank you, let me know how it goes with your tests. You'll find some scenes are more suited for it than
Excited to try this, thanks a lot!!
Hello you're welcome let me know how it goes. I also did a follow-up standard cyanotype tutorial a few weeks ago
I searched for this information for a long time (cyanotype & camera) Thank you so much. I am working on Lubitel 166B
Thank you for reminding me about this! I've tried it in the past and had a little trouble with exposure times. I am going to try it again.
Hello Connie thanks for checking this out. Long as you shoot in bright Sun you will be good.
Great Video! Rollei made a really nice conversion back for the Rolleiflex and Rolleicord which lets you use cut film in little darkslides. They turn up on Ebay quite often. The advantage is you can load your cyanotype paper beforehand and not have to mess around trying to avoid fogging while loading and unloading 'in the field'. Best wishes from the UK.
ooo man, i've been thinking of doing the same stuff for years, i have the chemicals i bought 10 years ago, both of them are stored in amber bottles and stored in a cool dark place. i've tested using my negatives and exposed them under direct sunlight, results seems pretty good, signs that my chemicals are still good. i'm gonna try to use your methos using my holga instead. thanks a lot ray and by the way, those are sick photos you got there dude.
Thank you for your very interesting tutorial.
Wonderful! I was wondering if cyanotype in camera worked and I got my answer! Love the water tower so much!
Awesome! Thank you for the tips. I have had their Cyanotype kit sitting on my shelf for a coupke of months and you inspired me to mix it up and use it. I have an old 6x9 folding camera that I will have to try it with.
Hello and thanks , you're doing better than me with that larger format camera. Let me guess it's either a Russian Moskva or a Zeiss ikon
@@Raychristofer it is a folding Universal Roamer II. They are old but inexpensive.
Awesome! I've been wanting to try this. Thank you for this vid!
Hello thank you so much. I don't know if you read my video description but I've started using a pre-treated paper called nature print that is so much better because you can actually rinse the image and it will retain, the advantage of that is now you have the pure white part of the paper and it will be a true cyanotype color. I need to do an updated review of this at some point
@@Raychristofer Very cool...I will have to look into that. I've been thinking about this process for a long time! I have a variety of old cameras to try it with.
The rinse off is most likely due to the amount of UV being allowed through the lens, also how long and well the paper was dried before trying.
Anyway, thanks for the info! I just followed you on insta!
Great video, been experimenting with large format without much success, some great tips here, I will try again, thanks
Great stuff, thanks!
hello thanks so much. At some point I plan to do a traditional cyanotype tutorial as well as how to do it on fabric so stay tuned in the coming weeks or months
Thanks for this video - really useful, concise and informative. Came here looking for possible hints about using homemade camera obscura - hadn't thought about the idea of using a medium or large format camera - brilliant idea! Shall try and dig out my old twin lens reflex to see if I can use it. Cheers!
Cool! I’m going to try this in my pinhole camera! Thx for the video
awesome thanks, let me know how it goes. dont be surprised though if no pic forms it needs pretty strong UV.
good results and glad you went ahead to try it despite not finding many people doing it in camera.now i know it can be done.
Hey analog thanks for checking this out I appreciate that. recently I started using a pretreated paper called nature print paper and what is beautiful about it is I can actually wash the paper and the print remains. What is important with that is I can get the paper back two white instead of yellow and when it's scanned and inverted the colors are more pure and I get much more fine detail. I'm going to show you an album with the new method. flic.kr/s/aHsmPbjPdG
@@Raychristofer this is so cool and i think they look good in amber. Will check out nature print products!
Thanks. Great video. I'm going to do it!
such an amazing tutorial
Hello thank you, I don't know how I missed your comment for 5 months. I'm glad it was helpful
I love the water tower! it looks like it's taken from above
Thank you!
excellent video, thanks for posting!
Thank you
I'm certainle interested. Thank you for the inspiration.
Fantastic video, thank you! I'm really excited to start playing with cyanotypes. I love making my own cameras, and this technique means size is almost no object... :)
Awesome that's what I want to hear definitely share your social media I'd like to see what you're doing. Also look maybe two months ago I posted a tutorial how to do traditional cyanotype as well
@@Raychristofer Great, I'll check that out! If I get any half decent results I'll pop them on my Flickr (and maybe IG) , feel free to follow :)

Great Video! Super interesting! :)
Wonderful work
Thanks for the visit
I did a video on this years ago, but you certainly did so much better with explaining!
Hello thank you. Everyone has their unique point or view though. I want to see your video though I will check.
@@Raychristofer Don't expect much!
super interisting video mate, thanks for sharing
Thank you, I haven't really experimented with it more since putting this video together but I hope to do it in a large format
Thanks for this video, I was just considering trying this with an old brownie.
Maestro!
The Water Tower is a great shot.
Very cool. Thanks for sharing. I think I'll give this a go in my 4x5.
I've been thinking about trying 4 x 5 but I just don't feel like investing in another scanner on top of the camera LOL
@@Raychristofer you can split scan them and stitch together in ps but yeah, there's always money to be spent.
@@adamm4926 hey with a name like that how come you don't have videos on the subject
Good video my friend Congratulations form ARGENTINA
Hey! Thanks for this amazing video!
I wonder if you ever considered making a double-negative cyanotype to maintain the whole process analog.
Can't wait to see your new stuff!
great video
Very good video.🙏
Hey thanks for checking it out. Glad it was helpful
Nice work. I am just getting back into photography this last year. Cyanotype is just up my alley for budget print. Can't wait to see what results I get. Thanks again
Awesome man thank you. To be honest cyanotype in camera is quite difficult but give it a try. Actually I recommend also shooting dark room paper in camera that's a fun way to challenge yourself and I've been getting some good results with that as well I'm working on a video review of how to do it but it's taking weeks to put together
@@Raychristofer it surely on my photography bucket list. I am in central Florida and my materials have been hostage in TN for three days. I missed the dead line for an IG contest. But that's ok I waited 15 years I can do few more days. Keep up the great work.
@@LuisMuniz2 I love central florida because I skateboard alot and there's at least some hills there to slalom down.
I've got two medium format photos. I'm gonna have to try this right now!
First, I want to thank you a lot!
I hesitated so much before using cyanotype in a camera. I am not really interrested in its inital use that is objects scanning. And the only photography's results I saw were... disapointing. But now you gave some sort of motivation to keep on the cyanotype photography!
Hello how are you? Have we spoken before? Yes you're welcome and definitely let me know what your results are like. What camera will you be using?
@@Raychristofer Hello, no and it is your first video I watched.
I started analogic photography when I found two old cameras in my house (Canon AE-1 program, and Revue 400L). But argentic photography is a long process, and I prefer non-standard ones.
So I studied pinhole cameras to learn more about light, optic, etc.
Now I feel ready to make a camera with a lens. I plan the aperture to be very large in order to reduce the shutter-speed while using cyanotype.
I hesitated for monthes because of the possible results but your experiments are very convicting.
My first results should come later.
Please forgive my english grammar :)
@@clement010200 your English is spectacular. Don't apologize. Respect
@@Raychristofer Hello, this is me, one year later. Today, I finally achieved making a decent cyanotype positive picture, without any use of computer.
I used transparent paper, gelatin, and more to take the picture, make a negative then transfer it into a positive picture.
I researched on it for about 6 months in order to get the best quality possible.
Thank you for getting me into it!
If you want to know more, it would be a pleasure to discuss about this process
Have a good day !
Beautiful work man!! I've been looking for examples of cyanotypes done in camera and didn't find any. Thanks I'll start trying right now. Greetings from Argentina!
Thank you brother great to finally hear from Argentina. Please let me know or see your experiments when you get a grip on it. By the way here's a link to the guy that inspired me.
www.alternativephotography.com/making-cyanotypes-in-camera/
@@Raychristofer Yes, it will be a pleasure, I'll send you a few pictures when I made them. Thanks for the link, it's really helpful!! Keep up the good work!!
Try pinhole camera, just build a box with hole and put bigger coated paper. I am in UK so no good sun index at this time. I will try it on summertime. Thanks for video and idea
You've just answered what I been looking for, exposing the image/paper in camera. Thank you Ray. Have you tried coating cyanotype on old photographic paper? I just wondered if that would produce a different type of image. The water tower looks good and the video is great, lots of info.
Love this, Ray! Was about to test some 4x5 holders using cyanotype paper, but was going to just test the darkside light trap (keeping the shutter closed) - now I'm going to run those tests as exposures, both to test this technique and see if there are any leaks :)
Hello Dan that's awesome man. I'm actually testing some pretreated cyanotype paper that was sent to me by a company called nature print paper and it is excellent for in camera because the image is actually retained after you rinse it and the paper becomes white again in the unexposed areas instead of staying yellow. if you'd like to see some preliminary tests check out my Instagram the link is in my homepage, I'm glad I was able to help
@@Raychristofer Raychristofer Just saw those! I'm using pretreated sheets of Sunprint paper (had a pack of it I was using with my neice and nephew a few months ago), though I also have the Jaquard bottles ready to go. I'll do some tests on these exposures and see how well this brand of paper holds onto the image after rinsing... 🙌🏼
Very cool experiment! I like how you stuck to it and figured out work-arounds to make it work. My only question is, how fast is the lens on your camera and would one more f-stops cut your exposure time in half?
Thanks man good to hear from you again. I think the one stop more does help because the rollei is a 3.5 and the Mamiya is at 2.8 and I do notice it works a bit faster.
I just find out cyanotypie existed ...great video easy explained😄
I am excited because i have my grandmother camera so this is exciting
