480ml of collodion. All of our collodion formulas are supplied inside wide-mouth borosilicate bottles to allow an easier pour and avoid the aging of the collodion as long as possible.
The Old Workhorse formula contains 2 salts: Potassium iodide and cadmium bromide. It has a great tonal range, similar to the Quick Clear and a long shelf life, but It’s one stop slower than Lea #7.
It is cloudy when mixed and needs between a week and a month to rinse and for impurities to precipitate to the bottom of the bottle. Decanting is necessary: you may want to buy a 500ml bottle for this purpose. It can be used shady without too much trouble.
All our collodions are freshly mixed when we receive an order.
Do you want to make a special and original gift? A memory that will last for generations? Come and meet us in our studio in Cáceres and give a portrait on glass made with one of the oldest processes in the history of photography: the wet collodion.
Wet collodion is a photographic process from the mid-nineteenth century in which photographs are obtained on glass and other supports such as lacquered aluminum. The image is formed within a thin transparent layer of a liquid called collodion. When the image is developed and fixed, you get a photograph made of metallic silver. It is an image of unparalleled quality, beauty and durability. Many of the photographs produced in those early years of photography are still intact.
You're booking a session for a 56.8x71cm plate. We will need between two and four hours approximately, during which you will live an unforgettable experience and take home a little piece of the history of photography. You will be able to enjoy the whole process of elaboration of your collodion plate and a unique portrait by the photographer Joaquin Paredes.
We're waiting for you!
We have prepared a workshop on collodion negatives and albumen prints given by Joaquín Paredes in our studio in Cáceres.
Albumin copying was invented in 1850 by Louis Désiré Blanquart-Evrard and was the most popular photographic process during the 19th century. It is a process that produces beautiful copies with a characteristic glow that made them prevail over matte copies on salted paper. In combination with collodion negatives they led to the first great "democratization" of photography. Making it accessible to a much larger audience.
the description and full program of the workshop is here: https://analoginside.com/taller-de-negativos-albuminas/
This is a three days workshop: morning and afternoon from 10-14h and 16-20h
To be able to attend to this workshop it is important to have some experience with wet plate collodion. It is a complicated workshop and having some skills with the process will help the student to get the most out of it.
