FROM DRY TO WET

without comments

I attended a most energizing workshop over in Victoria at Luz Gallery this past weekend. Moving on from the dry plate tintype process of a couple of months ago, myself and 8 other participants learned about the wet plate collodion process with the accomplished photographer Joni Sternbach of NYC. I’ve been looking for a medium to replace 11 years of working with Polaroid 55PN film (my last collection with that film is almost done!) and looks like this is the one. The way film is going it’s a good thing that I’ll be making my own from now on…ha ha.

The ubiquitous Skull photograph here…and below that a self portrait.
