    wet plate installation complete

    Just thought I'd share what I've been working on for the last two month. The end is in sight! Western State Colorado University commissioned me to build a bar on campus and to "be creative." So I floated the idea of building a bar top comprised of 140 ambrotypes of residence in the valley. Here's a few (bad cell phone) pics of the completed project. Thanks for looking, Jeff.

    8x8 ambrotypes on my Burke and James 12x20 camera
    Bausch and Lomb lens
    Shot in a studio with 2 LED 6500k flood lamps and 16 6500k florescent bulbs
    4.5 at 6-8 seconds
