Wet Plate Coming And 2 Scans

from Facebook...

Last night shift before a week off. Will mix my first wet plate chemistry including Collodion this week. Wish me luck  Looking forward to the possibilities of shooting wet plate, but gosh the speed of the slow stuff is intimidating! It will be something that will take a while to get used to. Still, creating images that live inside glass, pretty cool!
Here are some more scan edits for possible inclusion in "Shades of Grey" mag and the UNB Art Centre exhibition.

Note* Khun Ying and Khun Dui live in this shelter under the freeway as a couple. When I photographed them there they had already been living in the shelter for 4 years. In the photo Ying is just waking up and Dui is repairing a cellphone he had found in the garbage.
