2023 Ambrotype

This year! Forest at Preacher Point, Clear Glass Ambrotype, Highway 11, Alberta

8x20 Deardorff (Eddy) with120mm kens and Quinn Quick. Clear Collodion (QQC).  

The temperature was over 25c in the trailer. I was getting artifacts with Gerry Collodion. QQC seems to handle higher temps better. Will keep experimenting.

Exposure is so difficult with wet plate work. I feel this one might be a tiny bit under and the 20x29 inch flower shits from last week, might be a bit over
