  • isnt Collodion and its fumes super-flammable?? candles dont seem like a good idea here!

  • Comme je dis toujours, seule l'ignorance engendre le danger. Je pars du principe qu'il faut faire les choses en tout état de conscience. Il faut maitriser son sujet et savoir où l'on va. Lorsque vous vernissez une plaque, vous devez utiliser une flamme de toute façon, et autrement plus près des substances inflammables.......

    Wow you live in a very paranoid country, You should of told them "It is for photography you retards, not everyone in the world is a terrorist"

    Bang goes the great craft of old style photography in Germany. All because some people are retards.

  • Wonderful,but I couldn,t get the chemicals here in Germany. They told me (pharmacy) that maybe i,m a terrorist and do need all this stuff to make a Bomb or something else dangerous.

    So I don,t know how to make this process possible.

    Great Job!Wonderful pictures ,go on!

  • I've always wanted to do that, but we live in an 1880's victorian mansion, and I wouldn't want to burn it down. Let me try my high school skills. I can really only remember a talking pineapple. But let me give it a try...

    J'ai eu deux ans du francais a l'ecole, mais c'etait il y a de dix ans. Ainsi, pardonnez mon ignorance dans la traduction. Video tres fraiche. J'ai des centaines d'Ambrotypes, et je me suis toujours demande comment mon grand-grand-grand pere les a faites.

  • Merci, AGcristal, de cette vidéo

    Bien fait, je vois que tout va d'une main sûre et agile. Le plus ancien que j'ai fait était selon une recette de 1879, l'oxalate ferrique, sur un film d'aujourd'hui.

  • Hay kid good job!!!love to see this. always wanted to know how it was done back in the 18's19's hundred.thanks can you please do one with sound it should be much easier now you just explain what you are doing.

  • Where does one learn to do this. More inportantly, Where does one get the matterals to teach himself. ie chemicals and plates?

  • Flash powder WAS often used back then but it wasn't necessary all the time. If the light level was high enough or the subject wasn't moving, flash was not needed.
