Historical Processes

  After mentioning that I will not be on here much, I now have things to share, or at least things to store for myself. This is week in my 19th century materials and processes class we made paper negatives, collodian positives, ambrotypes and tintypes. Last week as a class we watched the daguerreotype processes and created two! I sat for the tintype (with my early morning tired face). I had to sit for 25 seconds; you can see I moved my foot and it looks like there are three feet. Hope to share more about tintypes later when I make them next month.
