From my day next to a church in Mundare Alberta, the graveyard.
Am playing with different colored rear glass (2 pieces, 1 with colodion photo, 2 with painted glass). Here using black and read paint on the year separate piece of darkening glass. This technique of 2 pieces of glass is vintage technique and also modern and archival.as the paint does not touch the varnished emulsion, only the clean glass side does. I will try various type of colored glass plates, different blacks, browns and reds. Trying to get the look that sings best to me.
