A couple of never printed before photos (Digi prints) of dad from the series MY FATHERS LAST DAYS. The images were made in 2014 as he lived with pancreatic cancer.

Trailer Upgrades!

Should be able to make some Ambrotypes next week! 

Have done many wet plate darkroom trailer improvements. Added and secured 2-30lb propane tanks, I hope they will not be stolen again. Added a large second hand cooler ($25) for all my liquid chemicals (Vinegars, Alcohol and Distilled Water) and finished the battery lid which allows more efficient storage of my trays.

New table top storage space on top of the battery lid/cover!

New second hand Coleman cooler for liquid chemistry

My new locked down propane tanks!

Monet working at 80!

Monet creating at 80, you gotta love it. They wrote that his love and search for light kept him young. A truly amazing man and artist. 

Lovely book, $7 CAD from the Thrift Shop.

Painting in a suit!

Propane Bottles Back on the Darkroom Trailer, Fanny

I replaced the stolen propane bottles and replaced the damaged propane trailer stand. I locked everything up with a 15 foot chain and lock. The whole setup cost over $350! Hope it is not all stolen again. I need the tanks to run the furnace to shoot in the winter weather of Canada.

Chained together and to the trailer.

Large Coleman Cooler for $25 CAD

Picked up a large 2nd hand Coleman Cooler for $25 yesterday. I will try using it to safely carry chemicals, vinegar and alcohol in the darkroom trailer. Will play with it today, try to set it up to be functional in the space. 

Note* This cooler compliments the super large one I got from work for free (used to carry 4-5 litre bottles  of silver!).

Will store all my liquids, vinegar, distilled water and alchohal in the new cooler.
