Hi all, I know I'm rather a lurker here and actually and honestly I don't do
much email lists anymore but this time some questions assaulted me at the time
of setting up up my new workspace, a nice tiny not so untidy gallery plus a
nice tidy darkroom. So here I go:
First is what about peeling silver paper emulsion off, which route to go better
through, RC of fiber ?
One of most beautiful things I had the chance to dig up is my three vintage
wooden made cameras. A 12x18, a 18x24 and a 24x30. All of them with backs and
in pretty good working order though the 12x18 looks a bit beaten.
What I mostly do is platinum/palladium prints so thought to use those cameras
as a source for my negs.
Big issue is that film that size is not hard to get here in Argentina but just
impossible. Then the idea of peeling off.
If this is too tricky, my hands got clumsier now, or for any reason this won't
work I'd still like to use silver paper as a negative, then scan and make
digital negs which I already make since a while with kinda success.
Another choice would be to go for X ray film though I don't have the slightest
idea about its speed nor how to process but both would hopefully be easy to
learn I guess.
So what would you suggest I better start with ?
Any help will strongly be thanked.
cheers
Pablo
