AstroMedia Cyanotype Paper

The contours and structure of leaves, flowers and other plants can be reproduced with this special light sensitive paper from the early days of photography, without cameras or darkrooms. The subjects are simply exposed to sunlight, developed and fixed with tap water. The process is called cyanotype or iron blueprint. It utilizes the light sensitivity of a ferrous salt and was used as one of the early copying processes. In addition to plants, other objects of the right size can be used to create beautiful graphic effects.
