Participants will learn and perform all the necessary steps themselves, finishing with their very own mercury-developed daguerreotype, archivally housed in a custom frame.<\/p>\n<p>Rob’s large state-of-the-art darkroom\/laboratory, along with his studio \u2014 equipped with electronic-flash units powerful enough to expose daguerreotype plates, will make for a convenient and exciting learning environment. Also there is a half-day trip to George Eastman House planned, where participants will get a private viewing of some of the world’s finest daguerreotypes along with the vintage equipment used to produce them. Rob is also seeking permission to use an unoccupied 1890s photographer’s studio nearby which still has its huge original curved-glass skylight windows.<\/p>\n<p>Later in summer <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cdags.org\/?page_id=316\">Jerry Spagnoli<\/a> has two workshops, one in <a href=\"http:\/\/www.f295.org\/2011\/?page_id=4\">Pittsburgh<\/a> and another in <a href=\"http:\/\/www.santafeworkshops.com\">Sante Fe<\/a>. In Pittsburgh the workshop will investigate the process introduced by M.E. Bequerrel in 1840 and in Sante Fe the workshop will cover the alternative to \u201clive\u201d exposures: contact printing from a positive transparency. This method can produce an image indistinguishable from an in-camera plate\u2014but with the greater control over the film positive, superior results can be achieved.<\/p>\n<p> Info about upcoming events such as these can be seen on our <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cdags.org\/?page_id=99\">events page<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.cdags.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/Rob_McElroy_in_lab_14in.jpg\" rel=\"lightbox[5142]\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.cdags.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/Rob_McElroy_in_lab_14in.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"Rob_McElroy_in_lab_14in\" width=\"300\" height=\"212\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-5146\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdags.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/Rob_McElroy_in_lab_14in.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cdags.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/Rob_McElroy_in_lab_14in-150x106.jpg 150w, https:\/\/cdags.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/Rob_McElroy_in_lab_14in-300x212.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cdags.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/spot5.jpg\" rel=\"lightbox[5142]\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.cdags.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/spot5.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"Spagnoli\" width=\"280\" height=\"212\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-5147\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdags.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/spot5.jpg 595w, https:\/\/cdags.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/spot5-150x113.jpg 150w, https:\/\/cdags.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/spot5-300x226.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 280px) 100vw, 280px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As the seasons change it is coming round to that time of year again when opportunities abound for Daguerreian instruction in north America.
