Rio Jordan, images from the Cape Fear River

A show of 50+ Tintypes and Ambrotypes shot over the past 3 years in and around the Cape Fear River. This is the start of a long term project to document the lower Cape Fear with the wet plate process and large cameras. "Rio Jordan" refers to the name Giovanni de Verrazano of Spain gave the river in 1524. Also included are some tintypes I made on my Spanish expedition
of June 2011. I was a guest artist at Sianoja XI.

Thanks to you Brian Reed and Jim McKee for enduring video and tintype photography all in a day. And Our state for trying something new in an old way. I shot this for a story on the Civil War coming up in this months Our State.
And Special thank to Jonathan Weaver for perfect edit of the raw footage I shot as I was making tintypes. That's really using both sides of the brain I might add.
