2 Ambrotypes Purchased for the Province of Alberta Collection

 


Note* Got lucky there. I kinda counted my chickens before they hatched. My plan was to spend the collected work money, $2000 CAD for the purchase of silver nitrate to make more Ambrotyoes. The problem was a month after I submitted the work to the phase 2 folks, I had not heard back from them. I did not know if they would buy the pieces. So I was heading off for a three week shooting trip with not enough chemical supplies. I decided to go all in, to take a chance. I bought the $2000 CAD in silver and another $700 in Collodion.

That chemistry is at home waiting in next week's trip departure. Luckily today found out the silver money will be coming from the province.
