Alex, Beautiful images. Curious about the format. Did you get a reducing back for your 11x14 or just an insert for your holder?
4x5 aluminum
Oregon Manroot #1
Scan of a 5x7 inch wet plate collodion negative, made with the Voigtlander Petzval lens. Collodion used: Coffer's #7 for negatives, and developed in Bostick & Sulivan developer @1:5.
Exposure was 6 minutes, which was pushing the limits of the medium: the artifacts on the image perimeter are the result of the plate starting to dry out at the edges prior to development. Thank you, Angels of Uncertainty!
I'm pretty new here and would like to showcase some of my wet plate work. I'm for a 100% a pure portrait shooter.
3 main lenses: Dallmeyer 3B, Voigtländer Helier 30cm f/4.5 & Voigtländer Helier 30cm f/3.5 almost wide open.
Collodion recipe: Old Dead Bride, my own dev. recipe
Most on 5x7 (13x18) all plates:
