Next up on “How can I ruin photographic materials” …. Direct positive dry plates & tintypes.

At least it’s a hobby… 😅

A screenshot for an order from Zebra Plates in Slovenia. The order contains the necessary chemical for the development of tintypes as well as direct positive dry plates.

Marc‘s collodion wetplate glass negative.

The details are amazing with this photographic process discovered in the 1850ies.
The wetplate collodion process was the technique that enabled the distribution of photography, because one could copy photographs on paper.
