Tintype process

I'm having a bit of hard luck with the tintype process and I'm beginning to understand what the early pioneers went through... The next step in the history of photography after the plate process was glass plates and printable negatives, I will in the next stage of my work produce a few one off 8x10 glass or perspex negatives to make contact prints with. I have been lucky enough to borrow a 8x10 camera from a friend of a friend so watch this space.

PS Check my personal blog for a few snapshots of my previous tintype and glass plate positives.

If I don't die of some kind of poisoning I think I'll have a nice body of work
