With the new year, I made a commitment to posting my tintypes, ambrotypes and glass negatives on the internet on a regular basis. The process I use, wet-plate collodion photography, is explained more thoroughly on my website. (See the link at left.)
This picture above was made at the Abo ruins one cold afternoon in December. I liked the interplay between the shadows of the beams and the fence posts. This was made with a 148-year-old lens and only a small portion is in focus.
