In this video, I relive some forgotten memories by making cyanotypes from rust and using them to develop my grandpa's photographic film while getting official cat approval and having my brain greatly expanded.

If you enjoyed this video consider liking it, sharing it with a friend, and subscribing to my channel - I'd really appreciate that :)

Also, at 0:25 I was meant to say the early 19th HUNDREDS, not the early nineties, which was not that long ago - thanks to people in the comments for pointing this out :)

Excuse me for my poor speaking, English is not my native language so I have some trouble with pronunciation, in case you don't understand something there are always subtitles made by me.
