Re: In-camera positives using Ambrotypes and Tintypes

Guess I've been roped in then.

Wetplate is really addictive if you go down that road. Its really got me back into photography for myself rather than photography for work.

Johns courses are well worth the money and he's a mine of information.

Re: Next official get-together: April16 & 17

I'll be shooting throughout the day, grouped and individually, I've no interest in sunset or sunrise.
After shooting I'll be interested in food and decent real ale. Chat, whether it be photography or anything else I'm not bothered.

Re: Next official get-together: April16 & 17

Re: Developing really old glass plates?

Lucky they're seperate plates. You can dev just one and then assess where to go form there. Hope theres something of interest on them. If you get anything post them up for all to see. Good luck.

Re: sending 4 x 5 film to process?

And make sure you mark the box, exposed film open only in a darkroom. etc.
