Could I ask what tripod that is? From the angle it looks light but still stable.

It comes with a plastic frame that you stick in like a film holder to compose and focus. After that's all set, you switch backs and expose it.

Classic "flower power" Vietnam protest photo except the hippie is putting malort, a hot dog, and a rainbo cone in the military's gun barrels instead of flowers.

Pocket watch on a tintype plate. Slightly out of focus because why not.

Back in the tintype lab after a break. First time using an elderly copper lens. All the veiling is from sloppiness and not a strained metaphor. #tintype #alternativephotography

Tons of mistakes while I'm learning tintypes and this is incredibly fun. An extra flick of the wrist when you pour the developer or dropping the plate in the silver bath a little slower than before will completely transform the result. Like learning to drive stick on a go-kart. #largeformat

Wooden frame with a black background

Wooden frame with a black background

Back of wooden frame with two clasps on the back that indicate it's for photographic contact printing. "Eastman Printing Frame" and "Eastman Kodak" are stamped on the back.

Was going through some boxes in my parents' basement and saw that an old frame was, in fact, an oddly-sized contact frame whose black background is instead an ancient LF negative. My dad said he found it in the basement of the IN house that they lived in in the 80s, and just held onto it. (1/2)

Excellent. The alignment looks purposeful - like how there used to be a minuscule shift on label cuts or colors when they would go down an assembly line that had been running a while.

Would you recommend the Intrepid for a beginner? I've been wanting to get into 4x5 and keep coming back to that one as a possibility. (assuming that one on the left is an Intrepid?)
