My contribution. I was teaching a workshop at Project Basho in Philadelphia this weekend and just got back to my scanner. I only got to make 3 plates on the big day. This is my contribution...

Nice work everyone.  I got to do one plate.  I was busy building a deck all day and was able to drag myself to do one plate with Fotodiox lights.

Daniel--I was wondering if you had a chance to make any plates--nicely done!  Everyone has been posting beautiful work--wish I could see the plates in person.

Here's my "wet plate day" work. I'm also starting a project in Ione at Preston prison for boys . I'll be photographing in the "Castle" an abandoned prison facility. I'm totally excited about this project. I knew it was the ideal project for me when I walked in to meet the director and she took me over to an old ,dirty display case and asked me if I knew anything about the old brass lenses that were just laying in a pile. There was an 11" and a 6" Jamin Darlot that the prison used about a 100 years ago just sitting there collecting more dust. I decided to mount the lenses and use them for the project.
