The Wet Collodion Process

Invented in 1851, the wet collodion photographic process produced a glass negative and a beautifully detailed print. Preferred for the quality of the prints and the ease with which they could be reproduced, the new method thrived from the 1850s until about 1880.

This really makes me appreciate photography so much more and how incredibly it has developed. I will not take for granted the next time I take a picture in but mere milliseconds in full digital color on my one of millions smartphone or DSLR for that matter. How incredibly smart man is to have developed this, I was utterly blown away when the print was revealed, the detail and clarity was absolutely stunning, despite the long process.

This process no matter how difficult or time consuming might be, it is such an interesting process which rewards you, at the very end, since the result out of it, is absolutely stunning!!!

It is mind boggling to think of the work that went into even figuring out this process. And how incredible is it that photography has come so far? The world could use more dreamers, like the scientists who made photography as it is today possible. INCREDIBLE!

William Henry Fox Talbot (1800-1877) British England 🇬🇧 invented the negative-positive process that formed the basis of photography until the rise of digital in the early 2000s.

For those of you who are doing this for academic or for doing it yourself this guy's understanding of the chemistry how the chemicals interact with each other is completely non-existent this guy's history is good but do not trust what he says what the chemicals my guess is he's getting this from really old literature before they actually understood the collodion is just a substrate that is permeable when damp this is why you have to keep it wet substrate holds the 2 salts allowance silver nitrate to interact with them when this happens it create silver bromide and silver iodide which are actually light sensitive silver nitrate does not directly adhere to the plate silver nitrate is only barely sensitive to UV
