Now let's not hear any more complaining about the sand getting into your camera on the beach!

That is so neat... having watched Bill Schwab and Joe Smegiel doing wet plate for the last couple of years at Photostock, I can attest to the appeal of photochemistry/alchemy in the field. (Matt, you were there... Got a nice portrait, as I recall... maybe I'll be brave enough to pose next time.. )

Cheers,

Several of the photos in this series were in a gallery show last year at the Rayko Photography Center in San Francisco. They are amazing.
