Thanks for your kind words Lucy. Wet plate collodion is a pretty special process. It is one where the photograph is an object in itself. It reflects light and has a depth that needs to be seen - better still to be held in ones hands. It is an easy process to learn - you just need to be meticulous an...

The portraits made will subsequently be used in an exhibition in the Howden centre.

One place left on a wet plate collodion workshop to be held at The Low Wood Photograpy Centre in Cumbria on 2-3 July. Further details at: http://www.carls-gallery.co.uk/workshops

I had a 5x7 for some time and now have a 10x8. Great cameras - well built and Keith Canham a wealth of advice and information should it be required. Highly recommended. If you have deep pockets I know that Colin Myers is looking to sell his 14x11

Note to self - don't buy a lens from Tim

I had a Walker Titan SF for a number of years - great camera. Look on Andrew Sandersons youtube and you'll find a review of the 10x8.

Kodak had Keith Canham on their stand at one the the photo annual shows in the USA this year. Kodak seem pretty commited to colour and b&w film for the forseeable future. And like Marizu has said - join in the wet plate revival fun otherwise!

Another vote for Inversnaid - well worth the money - great tuition! Hi David, I can personally recommend the large format workshop run at Inversnaid in the first week in July: http://www.inversnaidphoto.com/glancef.htm The food, accommodation and tuition are great, and you process the film each day ...

The remains of a turnip cutter - another 5x7 palladium image!

there are more images in the series - nearly all are l/f 5x7 or 5x4 - some are medium format. I hope to have more posted on my website fairly soon!

The farm house from the orchard with the daffs on show!

A fearsome bit of kit used to remove horns from cattle!

Milk churns stored in a byre - like the fact that the pitchfork has a broken prong (?)and that you can see the hay heck(?) in the background.

A couple of images from the farm project I am working on - made with the 5x7 canham.


Bell Box - Kitchen - Never used but a bit of humour!

A friend bought a Retro printing frame for a workshop with Kerik Kouklis held at my place - the frame was useless and I am sure was returned. Tim subsequently got one new off ebay but I use an old Kodak one which is rock solid.
