I've created a new negative (old on the left, new on the right). I won't bombard you with the step-by-step process, but once the print is finished I'll publish a link to a fully illustrated article on my website.

Two digital negatives of the same monochrome dahlia photograph placed side by side on a light surface. The original negative is on the left and the revised negative is on the right. In both, the flower fills most of the square image area while the surrounding background remains largely clear. The revised negative on the right is noticeably denser through the centre, middle and lower petals, giving those areas a darker appearance than in the original negative. This additional density was created using a 2.20 gamma correction before inversion, with the intention of holding back more ultraviolet light during cyanotype exposure and preserving greater tonal separation in the finished print. The comparison shows how the structure of the digital negative was altered while leaving the clear background largely unchanged.
