I suppose it relates to the amount of time, who is ready to speak and the
available facilities.
We have certainly included pin hole and fancy toning in the programme of
workshops at Hands-On Pictures, which was set up for alternative
photography workshops. The pin hole workshop last week with Russ Young was
very successful. We had a print by Roy Snell that was very 'mordancage'
in our publicity display at the National Exhibition Centre. There were also
gold/selenium and gold/thiocarbamide silver gelaltine prints by Mike
Crawford who, with Jonathan de Villiers who will be running a workshop at
Hands-On Pictures.
Three years ago I wrote some magazine articles in which I said that silver
gelatine would be an alternative process by the millenium. Everybody
laughed at me.
