This is a color shot made into a "dauguerreotype" via PS 7.

It is interesting to see such modern boats rendered in such an old process!

Thanks Anthony.
It's like a similar thing I did at uni. Only we did it on silk I can't remember what it was called now but we had to place the silk out in the sun and it would turn blue.

Very nice effect Anthony. I have actually worked on a few original
daguerreotype photos over at retouchpro in the challenge area.
Wonderful job.

Thanks Otto, Lisa--this is my first piece using my brand new scanner! (an El Cheapo Epson 1260 perfection photo--and in the 2 days I've had it I've only made 3 calls to support on how to use the #@$%* thing!)
regards,

A most interesting picture Anthony and thank you for the link to a most informative article.
You would appear to have recaptured the results of this process very well.
