    Re: Tin photos

    What you are referring to is known as a tintype. Here's a couple things that might get you started:

    Coming into Focus: A Step-by-Step Guide to Alternative Photographic Printing Processes

    Rockland Colloid Tintype Parlor Kit

    I've been thinking about trying some of alt process stuff myself so if you give it a try, please let me know! :thu,bsup:
