Fine art photography using large format sheet direct positive paper in antique cameras, vintage cameras and DIY cameras.

​

If you have looked at the sections on paper negatives you will know that photographic paper in these antiques cameras produces a negative image. Direct positive paper, as its name suggests, produces a positive image directly - with no negative/printing needed.

Direct positive, like photographic paper, is not sensitive to red/orange light.  This means it renders subjects with a quite different look and feel. Add to that the dramatically greater resolution film offers over the most expensive digital camera sensors I can make images that stand out from much of what we are given to view today. 

​

I like to produce images which draw the viewer in and the techniques and processes I explore are used to achieve that effect.
