After work today, I went home and sensitized another whole-plate (6.5″ x 8.5″) daguerreotype and shot a beautiful old barn. The new buffing procedure that I’m experimenting with seems to be increasing my plate sensitivity by a factor of a stop or more! The downside of this is that I slightly overexposed this whole plate but I’m going to keep it for my personal collection. Scan shortly.
