I recently took a walk through Seattle's Volunteer Park in the late afternoon, and their Dahlia Garden was a riot of brilliant blooms.

There were many different varieties, in so many shapes and colors it was hard to believe they were all the same type of flower.  Whenever I see dahlias though I always think of my cousin, who loves the red ones, so this post is for her.  😊

Gear: Nikon Z 7II, Nikon Z 40mm f2

Dahlia, Cyanotype

Thought I would have a go at increasing the scale, not of the image but with a supporting border. I like how this one has worked out. I don't think I will tone this. 16 inch by 16 inch sheet.

A square cyanotype print of a single Dahlia, made on Gerstaecker No. 3 watercolour paper and presented on a 16 × 16 inch sheet. The photographic image occupies an approximately 8 × 8 inch square in the centre, surrounded by a broad four-inch border of untouched paper. The cyanotype is a rich Prussian blue, with the sensitised area extending slightly beyond the image in visible, irregular brush marks, particularly along the top, left and lower edges. The Dahlia fills most of the blue square. Its many overlapping petals radiate outward from a tightly detailed centre, with the upper and central petals appearing pale and luminous against the darker background, while the lower and outer petals gradually fall into deeper blue tones. The large expanse of clean white paper around the relatively small image gives the print a restrained, spacious appearance. The finished sheet is photographed upright on a small wooden easel against a plain black backdrop.
