Paul Elter, Photographer

Glass, Collodion, Silver – three beautiful base elements to create soft creamy photographic images with depth, with vanilla highlights and beautiful chocolate hues. Who doesn’t want that? These timeless photographs use silver and light to develop a superior image with a surreal quality that will literally last for generation – this is Wetplate Collodion Photography being made on site at NLFB, by Paul Elter a multi-disciplinary artist of 25+ years working in photography, painting and sculpture. The TinCan studio a mobile darkroom and ultra-large wetplate camera – think food truck with really big lens, is where you will find him. Otherwise, Paul will be giving demonstrations of this historical processes and wandering around capturing images during the entire festival.
