Of Daguerrotypes and madness....

Greetings everyone,

This is my first post to the Alternative Processes Mail Server. And
as you can imagine I have a question.

I am heavily involved with large format picture taking and am
interested in experimenting with Daguerrotypes. That is, making them...
probably from scratch.

I have been avidly searching for literature on the chemicals
required and the general techniques but haven't come up with anything. Do
any of you have Daguerrotye FAQ's, books to recomend, web sites, or just
plain old advice? I would greatly appreciate your help.

As well, I invite you to check out my new web site. It requires
Netscape 2.0 and has some of my photographic work in... you guessed it...
the Photography section.

Thanks to you all, and best of luck with your own projects.
