First CGA
Friday, February 26, 2010 at 9:45AM I uploaded this once it was dry, but I forgot to post an new entry about it.
Clear Glass Ambrotypes are made by creating a negative on a sheet of glass before backing it with black material or paint. For this, I just used black paper, as I want to still be able to use it as a negative.
I am going to try out plexiglas/lexan, I think. The emulsion peels from glass that isn't absoultely spotless, so it's a pain. Plus, lexan and plexiglas do not break as easily as glass.
