💙 Create a cyanotype on this year’s theme “INHERITANCE”. No nudes allowed.
💙 Scan it or photograph it and resize it to 1080 pixels at its LONGEST side.PLEASE don’t send large files, it ends up in the spam box and we may miss it.
💙 Name the file “Name Surname, Country, Title.jpg” for example “Joanne Smith, USA, Shining Light.jpg” (Your name, the country where you are from, and the title of the image). Only ONE cyanotype per person.
💙 Use a file transfer such as Dropbox or WeTransfer if you can. Large files may get lost. Email the link and your Instagram account (if you want to be tagged) to talk@alternativephotography.com. You will get a confirmation email within 2 days.
