Prisoner # 1313131313

Wet plate portrait of a very good friend with a very good sense of humor. Taken late in the day, so the long exposure resulted in a little blurriness.
Location
Front Yard
Equipment Used
Kodak Masterview, 360mm Fujinon
Exposure
30 sec, f/8
Film & Developer
Wet Plate Collodion on Aluminum
Very expressive portrait, like a character from a carnival of the 20s...
 
Full of character. Such immediacy. Sucks me right in. Very well done!

I can't believe the LACK of blur with a 30s exposure, especially in the face.

Thanks for all the great feedback. My model definitely got his Zen on to hold as still as he did for 30 seconds. Clearly I need to do more portraits - finding sitters with this kind of character is the hard part for me; especially if they are strangers...
