The digital revolution is at full speed. The products & techniques that we once thought were going to be with us forever are under attack.  Industries are changing so rapidly that only the most reckless would try to guess what is in the future for imaging. This web site is the "retro" of this revolution.  It is a resource for some of the tools and processes that have made imaging what is today.  Spend time looking at a Platinum print, & wonder at its beauty. Platinum prints, made a century ago, are as beautiful as the day they were created.  They are a truly archival piece of art. They are difficult to create, but everlasting in their beauty. There are many tools & processes, new & old, that when used correctly, create lasting beauty, & art.

Take a look at some of the descriptions of these silver & non-silver processes for making images with light. They are the first cousins to the family of imaging processes that are still being mass produced (albiet in increasing lesser quantities) and marketed today by giants like Kodak & Polaroid.  For those of you that have chosen to practice your craft with these historic tools & processes, "Master the technique, then make good art".
