    Your portable darkroom is literally bigger than my bedroom in Hong Kong, which is also my darkroom 😂

    Really awesome series. I've been diving back into 35mm and medium format and this type of set up is end goal. Not sure I'll ever make it here but glad to see it being done. Keep up the great work and thanks for sharing.

    Good set up. You can save the first plate with Farmers Reducer, that will bring down the the over exposure and leave a perfectly good image.

      Good point, but I rarely do this when I can make another plate.

    Hi Bill you mentioned putting in dissolved white sugar into your developer to act as a restrainer… how much per 100ml of developer do you use as I have problems with veiling and fogging on my plates

      Hi Michael. Thanks for the kind comments! Sugar ask is an excellent restrainer and you really can’t overuse it, but I would consider starting with 20 to 25 g per your hundred milliliters. You can adjust from there. Works great for those hot days as well as fresh collodion and hot exposures.

    Pouring the developer on the plate works for you Bill? I have always been told to pour from one edge to avoid splashing and spotting of the developer. Never tried pouring directly on, maybe worth a go. You also poured 2 times, was wondering if that was an option. Applying extra developer later on in development to a vital area.

      Hi Michael. Thanks for asking and thanks for your kind comments. Start with about 20 g to 25 g of plain sugar in your hundred milliliter mix and see how that works for you. You can adjust up or down from there. It’s pretty benign, so you really can’t use too much. Hope this helps!
