Second try with the same sheet of paper. On my first try, I had the sheet of paper in backwards (for about 7 days 🙄😫), which led to that short sun streak you see on the right.

2nd try was same sheet of paper, inserted correctly 🤓, and was for 3 days—1 cloudy day and 2 sunny days.

Another, rarher poor, wetplate negative. I wont have any time to shoot over the next week or so, but can’t wait to get out and try shooting some more collodion negatives, hopefully correcting the mistakes I made with these last two.

It’s a journey….

This was the first public version of Instagram on Oct. 6th, 2010.

If you are aware of Foto today, this is like being aware of Instagram at the end of September 2010. We are VERY early in the life of Foto.

Public Launch is a new phase, but we have a long way to fulfill our vision for Foto.
