Hi Alex,

Very fine portrait of your daughter. It's interesting to see that there are so many wet collodion portraits that exhibit this intense look, just like this one. Probably very white eyes??

Anyway did I said, that I like it?

Cheers,
Marko

Thanks Marko,

actually she has lightgreen/blue eyes.
On collodion they look more intens.

My bad, Alex. Sclera on wet plate became very, very white and the contrast against the rest of the face tones looks like it intense the look. Uff, that's a bit more complicated to write down in English, that I would prefer, but hopefully you'll understand.

I just can't seem to find myself models, so I've been doing self-portraits most of the time, though it has brought me to insanity
