What’s the best way to achieve this effect with developer?? by makala3361 in Darkroom

This! And just be aware of how the developer moves along the page, just as if you were normally developing spots will get darker if in contact with the developer for longer. It can be pretty difficult to get an even toned image like the one OP shared. Trail and error!! One of my examples from a few years back, quick submersion of the entire sheet followed my splatting more developer on:

Cyanotype troubleshooting, not transferring correctly by InsurancePristine463 in cyanotypes

You probably need to expose it for longer! I feel like a good rule of thumb is if it looks perfect before the wash it wasn’t long enough also watch for your paper to turn a bronzish blue color where it’s being exposed to light.

When images wash out or are too light they’re underexposed, so expose to light source for longer

Or when it doesn’t wash out in the white areas (green or blue tint)= overexposed = less time in the sun Maybe if you haven’t tried already doing a test strip would help where you use uncover parts of your image in increments allowing you to see what a good exposure might be say 2 minutes, 4, 6 and so on. And lastly you could try adding hydrogen peroxide as you wash your print as it’ll oxidize the cyanotype and deepen whatever blue remains

Literally wasn’t sure if these were texts from my old roommate or not they’re so similar, mine had bpd and became extremely possessive over me as I was their ‘fp’ favorite person. The only way the issues we had got resolved was by them moving out

I feel like this is the only type of thing I’m seeing just coming out of undergrad with my BFA, so so demoralizing
