My first tin type
A few weeks back I did a one day workshop learning how to make tin types at gold street studios - this is one of the tin types I made on the day. The collodion was hand poured onto the metal plate which was then sensitised in a bath of silver nitrate. The shot has to be taken while the plate is still wet. After exposure, the plate is developed and dried. A varnish of sandarac and lavender oil is poured onto the plate to seal it. It was a perfect day. I want more!
