    Blue skies white sand. Feh! It's just another beach. I thought you might have found something rare and special like a raincloud or a fresh water spring.

    On, did I mention the WW2 bunker just behind it? Complete with grenade traps...

    To someone who used to live on the coast, but is now locked into the center of a continent, this is a find indeed.

    Oh, and the coordinates above will open very close to the bunker, easily visible in the sat view.

    Just behind this is a very interesting field full of stuff!. We walked around it the time we stayed at the barracks but didn't go down to the beach.

Back in October last year, I picked up some "Solarprint" paper from an educational supply house that was having a sale. For some weeks I thought about what to do with it, and eventually decided that the usual path of making contact prints or photograms with it was a bit too dull, and that I would build a camera and take photos with it.  Now I am by no means the first person to do this - although the idea of producing cyanotype camera negatives is surprisingly recent. As far as I can tell, the first person to do it was photographer,  John Beaver, in 1999 - over 150 years after the development of the chemistry ! More recently, blogger Nag on the Lake published a how-to for cardboard cameras in 2019. Meanwhile, Ray Christopher has been experimenting with using cyanotype paper as a medium-format negative.
