Dane Carder
Shot this portrait of my friend Dane Carder today after lunch. Experimenting with shooting 8×10 HP5, but with the old 1800′s Petzval lenses. And this combined with a built blank plate from some wet plate that we shot today. Still learning…

Dane Carder, fine artist.
Amazing! I really love this look you are getting. Beautiful color, great shallow focus and really interesting looking people. I guess you will be making a book some day of all of these portraits.
I like the look as well. I hope someday to do something like this.
