Glass Plate Photography

24/1/2016

 
In my proposed project proposal I stated that I wished to experiment with glass plate photography.  Initially I had considered Wet Plate Collodion.  That was until after purchasing and reading a book on the process I considered it was highly likely that I may gas or blow myself up!  The process involves volatile chemicals and extreme care.  The book advises that you must be a practitioner of the dry plate process first before you embark on wet plate adventures.  

Advice taken on board my next book purchase is "Silver Gelatin, A User's Guide to Liquid Photographic Emulsions".  The book is well laid out, informative and inspiring.  However nothing compares to a practical demonstration. As luck would have it I find a weekend workshop at Street Level Photoworks, Glasgow. The test now though is my patience as it is not until April!
