The Photgraphy Show Talk: \u00a0Saturday 12 \u2013 12.45pm, Sunday \u00a011 \u2013 11.45am<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

There is a resurgence in the \u2018dark arts\u2019. This renaissance in the use of the \u2018Alternative Processes\u2019 is fuelled by advances in digital printing technology.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m going to be giving a series of talks at the Photography Show on the 19th and 20th March 2016 outlining how alternative processes such as cyanotype, kallitype, argyrotype and especially Platinum printing are having their renaissance. Using a hybrid system of making contact negatives digitally and printing in the wet darkroom I\u2019ll show how this amalgam of the new and the old can produce beautiful organic prints which will further your printing repertoire.<\/p>\n

Platinum prints exhibit a range of tones, a soft-sharpness and a luminosity which together with unsurpassed longevity and archival stability makes them the pinnacle of photographic fine art print making . Once restricted to large format plate type cameras I\u2019ll show how this printing technique is being revived and being used by digital and analogue photographers alike.
\nThere will be a discussion on digital negative creation, chemicals, equipment and papers, as well as common mistakes to avoid, to provide an overview for those wishing to dip their toe in to the alternative process waters.<\/p>\n
