My obsession with #cyanotype continues. I've figured out how to make big (A3) negatives, and this is a print I made of St. John in the Wilderness church at Koromiko (Between Blenheim and Picton). Opened in 1871, and apparently attended by Catherine Mansfield, it seems fitting to reproduce with a 19th Century process.
Because blue gets a bit boring, I toned it with some oak leaf extract from leaves I collected in a local park in autumn.
I hand coloured with professional watercolour pencils.
Only in a cheap frame as it gets expensive to get custom ones made for every print unless I sell something.

Many thanks to CHO's haiga editor Ron C. Moss for selecting this haiga for their current issue (#21.2).

Thanks also to Debbie Strange for suggesting I turn this image into a haiga.

You can probably tell it hadn't been long since I had seen The Brutalist!

😂the answer to every question is "it depends". In this case, you don't have to be a #US #citizen to get a US #amateurradio license, but depending on where you're from, your #US license may not be accepted for credit toward a license in your home country. For example, #Aotearoa only has one license grade and it is equivalent to #US #extraclass. You'll have to sit for an exam in #newzealand if you have #General or #technician class licenses.

@ptoothfish Seconding that the Telly Tuita exhibition is awesome and well worth a look if you’re on the Welly waterfront. I coveted several of them. #nzArt
