Just Portraits, Without Rules or Date

This is awesome!

Are you able to explain the technicals behind this one? (lens, in camera and print medium)

Cheers

This is Wetplate collodion. I belive I used my century 10A or Korona 11x14. Lens was dallmeyer 4b and this was on aluminum.

Thanks - I thought so, just wasn't sure. Based on the texture, I thought it may have been a print on Art paper or similar. Very nice by the way. I really like it - a nice warm feeling to it.

Excellent

Indeed. great location, nice balance of the wires, nice fill, strong imagery.
I'd prefer more even development. I love the two hills in the distance.

88, your technical skill and artistry combined with the emotive power of your lovely model make this an extraordinary and compelling portrait. Everything is just spot on. Bravo!

Thanks.

Perfect light for portraits is the sunset.

My first X-ray portrait. My wife's a good sport letting me practice with half speed blue x-ray film which is not flattering to mature ladies. Graflex Super D, Gundlach Petzval, Pyrocat HD. More details in the X-Ray thread in the darkroom and film section.
