Gold Toned Waxed Salt Print From a Wet Collodion Negative

10" x 8" Gold Toned/Waxed Salt Print from a Wet Plate Collodion Negative
Because of the finish on the print, this didn't photograph very well (too much contrast). But you can get the idea. I "cooked" the print a little too long, too. I usually have a problem with not exposing long enough (printing out), but these print out pretty fast and I'm using my BLBs.

This was made with artificial light - 2 minutes 45 second exposure and I used an iodine/pyro re-development on the negative.
