A series of monochrome photographic prints that have had the blue tone treatment. This is a simple two bath chemical solution where the fully developed print is first immersed in a chemical solution (the blue toner). Then put into a simple salt/water solution. Before been properly washed and then dried. This series of blue toned prints just show you how relatively simple it is to change the whole tonal range and depth of a monochrome photographic print. You will find straight-forward monochrome prints of some of the images featured here, displayed elsewhere upon this blog spot.
The images featured here where taken on Ilford HP5 Film (rated at 400asa) using only available light, eg natural light coming in through the windows and artificial light (from the indoor lights). The camera was mounted upon a tripod to enable slower shutter and exposure speeds.
The Royal Armouries, Leeds, West Yorkshire, England.
From an assignment that I did for a National Diploma Photography and Related Studies course, 1995-1998. At Hull College, East Yorkshire, England.
