This shot of my great, great, great grandfather taken around 175 years ago is a daguerreotype so would be silver: Attachment Deleted |

Taken with a flower shaped gobo for an aperture? |

I was about to say that looks very Anglo Saxon, but I guess it could just as easily be Celtic. |

Taken with a flower shaped gobo for an aperture? That's right, a simple bit of black card cut with a craft cutter & mounted in a hand cut disc to match the lens size. On this occasion it was to bright to use the lens (a 50mm/1.2 projection lens) without something to reduce the incoming light. I think 1/4000 at base iso was a good two stops overexposed. |

View AttachmentAll that's left of the Christmas cake...processed with Silver Efex Pro. Great thinking preserving a memory the little snow man, nicely processed too.
When I was looking for "silver" Bridge brought me many matches for Silver Wedding and Sliver Efex but none for silver the colour or metal.
