This is a simple and inexpensive process: it requires only two low-cost reagent. The substrate can be paper or fabric. This process is interesting for both beginners and advanced photographers.
    Cyanotype was invented by Sir John Herschel (Sir John FW Herschel, 1792-1871) astronomy and physics. In 1842 he first published a description of the cyanotype in "On the Action of the Rays of the Solar Spectrum on Vegetable Colors, and on Some New Photographic Processes".
    Herschel was one of the founders of the pictures. It was he who prompted Talbot (William Henry Fox Talbot, 1800-1877), creator of the first negative-positive process, the use of sodium thiosulfate (now well-known fixer) for conversion to water-soluble form of unreacted silver halide (fixing image) and to facilitate the leaching out of the picture . The term "Photography" was also introduced by Herschel.
    Initially, cyanotype practically not used in photography. Herschel invented the process for copying of mathematical tables. Anna Atkins (Anna Atkins, 1799-1871), British biologist, in 1843 released a limited edition book, which was first used photos of plants (more photograms) made cyanotype.
    Because of its simplicity and cheapness of cyanotype used quite often. Several American companies even sell ready tsianotipnye paper in the period 1870-1930.

the material basis of the amounts of gelatin, food, or photographic, the higher grades.
OilPrint copyright is exclusively a process does not provide for laboratory technician or assistant on any of the stages. The author is preparing a foundation and finishing the work himself.
OilPrint process more than one hundred years. Classic OilPrint currently use no more than a dozen artists around the world. This is partly because of the bulkiness and nerafinirovannosti the action itself. In addition, the big break in the development process was due to leaching of the living photographers of the negative aspect, without which OilPrint impossible. Modern technology gave new life to the process, since the production of high negativity in any format is now carried out by means of modern output devices for high-resolution images.
Classic OilPrint distinguishes it from related processes such as BromOil extraordinary richness of the surface, originating in the properties of paper and hand caused a gelatinous layer.
