Self Portrait 3

I have this idea of doing a series of self portraits but using objects and locations, the first being based on books. some are books recently read as in this image and refer to a current topic of interest whilst the others are books I use on a daily, monthly or yearly basis.

Additionally, I have recent started to explore the Kallitype process and these images represent the output of two days of learning this process.

The actual negatives where developed originally for salt printing. Prints have been toned in Platinum.

Seeing Trans-Siberian Railway reminds me: If you get a chance, try Ian Frazier's Travels in Siberia.
