a cyanotype contact print from a paper negative

I'm taking an antique photo processing class and we did cyanotypes the other day in class.

 

Apparently, cyanotypes last forever.

 

The neat thing, though, is that this is a contact print through a piece of laserjet paper. The exposure takes about an hour and a half (and still really low contrast. Ideally, everything is as blue as the border... :)

 

Not bad for a first try!
