wet plate day Sunday june 21, 2009
It looks like this thing is going to happen. It should be a nice community builder.
World Wet Plate Collodion Photography Day 2009 Book
In honor of the process, and the inventor, Frederick Scott Archer, we are going to publish a soft cover, 8.5 x 8.5 perfect bound, color book.
This book will be available on Lulu for purchase. The proceeds will go toward a proper grave stone for Mr. Archers burial lot. The storefront is here - http://stores.lulu.com/wwpcpd
If you are interested in being published in the book, please scan, or photograph your plates (maximum of two) and send them to me wetplate@gmail.com as 300dpi 8x10 images. They should be between 4MB 6MB each. I may color correct and adjust brightness and contrast for the publication.
Along with the photographs, please send a full release for use and publication. This is a legal requirement and your images wont be used if I dont have a release.
Finally, with each image include the following information:
First Name Last Name (of the artist)
Title of the Photograph (will be called Untitled if there is no title)
