You remember Stanley right? We posted about this assignment we were helping Angie’s cousin with. If you missed it you can read more about Stanley here. We had taken Stanley around town for a few photo ops. Well Stanley went even older than the vintage polaroids we took, and went collodion. Here is a positive, tintype collodion image of stanley. I am pretty sure when the technology to make collodion images was discovered that they didn’t have crayons. Stanley was colored with crayons.
So to add to all the locations, stanley has now had his picture taken with a process from 1860 (collodion wet plate), a process from 1932 (polaroids) all the way up to digital.
Just a note this was Angie’s very first time using a 8×10 camera and collodion. I think its a great first plate. Congrats honey.
