I've been able to slowly start working on my Holga tintype series. Right now it's an arduous process. The unexposed tins have to be loaded into the camera in a light-sealed condition. Since I don't have a changing bag in order to change tins inside my camera on location, I have to load the camera at home in my darkroom, go to the location, shoot, come back home and develop the exposed tin. Then I can load up the camera again and repeat the process.
In addition, I recently took a nasty bump to my head and received a mild concussion -- just enough for my doctor to order me not to drive until the next appointment when I will be hopefully cleared. So this makes me subject to the kindness of strangers for transportation to sites.
Now that I am seeing how this process works, and the results I am able to achieve, I will be working more on the artistic, poetic quality of the images.
More to come.
