i passed this on to the UK Collodion group on facebook. Hope you get something out of it

I'm gordon from convergent on another forum and i do wet plate photography. These are dry plates...i would head to facebook and look for collodion groups and ask there if anyone is interested.

don't know how to tiny url it...the missing word is a description of someone of illegitimate parentage....that should help you to work it out

I'm sure there will be another next year and there was a cracking one i went to in The Netherlands...it was European Collodion Weekend There is no website for the UK contingent. It was organised through the UK Collodion facebook group. Many of us are also members of another colldion facebook...

The UK's first wet plate collodion weekend meet up is happening on saturday and sunday in the scottish borders. A pile of the UK's practioners, myself included, will be descending on Rubislaw Campsite just outside Hawick. I am sure that no-one would mind if interested parties popped over to see...

congrats....it'll be fine. have a grand time!

I wouldn't giggle. Would you giggle if they said they used a pinhole camera? Or an old 35mm rangefinder? Just what level of camera is required for you to be able to call yourself a photographer? The tool used to make the image is pretty irrelevant. There are plenty of folk who use iPhones...

yes it seems to have gone a bit random since last time I looked. His portraits were great, as are many of the shots from the film series...ig you can find that part of the site!

it's a slit scanning app. If you've seen the images that Jeff Bridges does with his old wide screen slit scan analogue film camera It's sort of works a bit like that except you can vary the aperture of the slit and some other stuff. It's lo res though. an example of one of the first weirdo...

The question in the title was about the "image" you are talking about functionality aspects of a piece of hardware. :bang:.....but i get where you are coming from none the less

No problem. Sensible questions deserve sensible answers!

Stewart, yes that is partly it. I found that when i started using the iphone (for a photo a day for a month) just after i got it. I quickly developed a style. Similar to the one I had with my dslr stuff but perhaps more graphic and bold. The limited capabilities helped me in that regard...

Yes, in my case I am. I am not a photoshop god. If you look at my 500px stuff. A lot if it involves post processing. When i had my DSLR I used photoshop but I never really did compositing and layering multiple images or stitching stuff together. With my iphone I do and I find it simple. The apps...

i don't need acknowledgement that iphones are capable of taking good photographs. I know they do. I do like a bit of validation that folk like the images I produce though. That was the case when I used a DSLR and a compact camera and a medium format film camera. I suspect that a lot of the...

in my case it was the DSLR that couldn't fulfill my vision.
