An alternative process exposed by Ultra Violet/Sunlight through use of contact negatives to produce images exactly as were produced by William Henry Fox Talbot in 1835.


The Kit contains: 5 sheets 8x10in Canelleto paper, 5 sheets 8x10in digital contact film, 2ml syringe 250ml solution each of: Salt - Silver & Stabilisers 1, 2 & 3, protective gloves, buckle brush and full detailed instructions for use.

Ammonia is required to activate the silver solution and is not supplied. This is available from most pharmacies.

A buckle brush is the invention of Fox Talbot and is a glass test tube filled with cotton wool. This is enclosed as part of the heritage aspect of the kit. Any alternative brush, acrylic rod, swab or roller of your choice will be suitable. The applicator used must have NO metal parts in contact with the solution as this will affect the sensitising effect.
