    First attempt with bromine in the mix. Plate was fumed over the iodine to a rose color. The bromine was 20 seconds and was established by doing a quadrant test. I think the bromine ratio is too high but I will do other test plates soon. I used two 450 CFL light fixtures with softboxes and the plate was exposed at using a 150mm wide open at f3.5 for 90 seconds. This was developed at 168 degrees Fahrenheit for 5 minutes. This plate was dropped right after the hand buff and it landed on concrete jelly side down 🙁

    I re-buffed it and decided to keep the plate for testing purposes. It has some pits and flaws but I managed to squeak out an image.

    just completed this one today- Whole Plate Daguerreotype-

    Dallmeyer 3A , 1minute exposure using 1 450watt cfl with a softbox and a mole richardson solar spot. Plate buffed with random orbital only with rouge and then lamp black on medium speed. Iodine at 7 minutes to sepia/rose color, bromine at 2 minutes and then back over the iodine for 4 minutes. My boxes do not fume a whole plate very well and there was a definite hotspot over the first iodine but is not that obvious in the final image. This was scanned using the insert for the mercury pot to leave an airspace on the scanner bed. Looks like the glass was not very clean

    My latest Becquerel daguerreotype.

    Title: “Kiss in mirror”

    It will be part of a series, like someone was closed in a mirror.

    I made a video about this picture.
