Still Life, Wet-plate collodion, BGA ambrotype, 18x24 cm

30 sec at F/8, Hugo Meyer Portrait Trioplan 12"/3.5
Used artificial light - two sources: one as primary with two tape strips to emulate a window and another one was placed between table and background just to light the bottle.

After trying some seeing on your ambrotype, I can better understand when you say:
"When I print my photos with alternative processes I put a little piece of my soul into them."
Great work Alexei !
Here goes some music to celebrate our "photographic joy" and to feed our souls before they go into too many pieces:-)

Print was first exposed for 3 sec's, then the boots were covered up with a paper cutout of the same shape. The whole print then got additional 10 - 20 seconds (i didnt realy count, just went by feeling) of exposure. I'm eventually going to re-do this more better.

Era 100, and contact printed on expired Slavich RC paper.
