My own wet plate photography



            I wanted to create one of the wet plate images myself however the wholeprocess is very expensive and it is hard to get your hand on the solution they use called Collodion, takes years to get it right. I Decided to recreate this effect on Photoshop, luckily there was a guide on the internet as shown below with the link.

  As I experimented more I got gradually better.   I created my own wet plate layer from one of Ian’s images because it was so hard to re-create it myself. The image is of the background from the biker photograph

Here are some of my earlier images with the wet plate effect on them
