The term alternative process refers to any non traditional, or non commercial photographic printing process. Currently the standard analog photographic printing process is the gelatin silver process , and standard Digital printing digital processes include the pigment print, and digital laser exposures on traditional color photographic paper. Alternative processes are often called historical, or non silver processes. Most of these processes were invented over 100 years ago and were used by early photographers. Many contemporary photographers are revisiting alternative processes and applying new technologies the Digital negative transparency digital negative and practices to these techniques.

Opalotype or opaltype is an early technique of photography . Opalotypes were printed on sheets of opaque, translucent white glass early opalotypes were sometimes hand tinted with colors to enhance their effect. The effect of opalotype has been compared to watercolor or even pastel in its softer coloring and tender mood. ref Frank, Robin Jaffee. Love and Loss American Portrait and Mourning Miniatures. New Haven, Yale University Press, 2000 p. 287. ref Opalotype portraits...for beauty and delicacy of detail, are equal to ivory miniatures. ref Gernsheim, Helmut. Creative Photography Aesthetic Trends, 1839&ndash 1960. New York, Courier Dover, 1991 p. 56. ref The basic opalotype technique, involving wet collodion and silver gelatin, was patented in 1857 by Glover and Bold of Liverpool . Opalotypes exploited two basic techniques, using either the transfer of a carbon print onto glass, or the exposure of light sensitive emulsion on the glass surface to the negative. Opalotype photography, never common, was practiced in various forms until it waned and disappeared in the 1930s. Milk glass positive is another alternative term for an opalotype. Opalotype is one of a number of early photographic techniques now generally consigned to historical status, including ambrotype , autochrome , cyanotype , daguerrotype , ivorytype, kallitype , orotone , and Ferrotype tintype .

File Thomas Garrett ambrotype c1850 crop.jpg thumb Ambrotype of Thomas Garrett circa 1850 Thomas Garrett August 21, 1789 January 25, 1871 was an abolitionist and leader in the Underground Railroad movement before the American Civil War . Garrett was born into a prosperous landowning Religious Society of Friends Quaker family on their homestead called Thornfield in Delaware County, Pennsylvania . The house in which he lived until 1822, which was built around 1800, still stands today in what is now Drexel Hill, Pennsylvania Drexel Hill in Upper Darby Township, Pennsylvania Upper Darby Township . In a family already inclined to abolitionism , Thomas was exceptionally dedicated. When a family servant was kidnapped by men who planned to sell her as a slavery slave in the Southern United States South , he tracked them down and released her. A follower of the schismatic Quaker leader Elias Hicks , Garrett split with his orthodox family and moved to Wilmington, Delaware Wilmington in the neighboring slave state of Delaware to strike out on his own and pursue his struggle against slavery. He established an iron and hardware business and made it prosper. As he worked in the iron and hardware business in Wilmington, Delaware Wilmington , Garrett openly worked as a Station Master on the last stop of the Underground Railroad in the state. Because he openly defied slave hunters as well as the slave system, Garrett had no need of secret rooms in his house at 227 Shipley Street. The authorities were aware of his activities. However, he was never arrested, but in 1848 he and a fellow Quaker, John Hunn, were tried and found guilty of helping a family of slaves escape. They were both found guilty and fined. Because he was the architect of the escape, Garrett, in particular was fined 4,500. However, a compromised settlement was made and a lien was put on his house until the fine was paid. With the aid of friends Garrett was able to pay the fine and continue in his iron and hardware business ... more details

Cleanup date August 2008 Collodion is a flammable, syrupy solution of Nitrocellulose pyroxylin a.k.a. nitrocellulose , cellulose nitrate , flash paper , and gun cotton in ether and alcohol. There are two basic types flexible and non flexible. The flexible type is often used as a surgical dressing or to hold dressings in place. When painted on the skin, collodion dries to form a flexible cellulose film. While it is initially colorless, it discolors over time. Non flexible collodion is often used in theatrical make up.

This also reduced the exposure time when making the image. This became known as the wet plate collodion or wet collodion method. Collodion was also grainless and colorless, and allowed for one of the first high quality duplication processes, also known as Negative photography negatives . This process also produced positives, the ambrotype and the tintype also known as ferrotype . The process required great skill and included the following steps Clean the glass plate extremely well In the light, pour salted iodide bromide collodion onto the glass plate, tilting it so it reaches each corner.
