Looking for other people here who're interested in analog "alt process" photography (especially Kallitype & salt prints in general) and who are also making their own prints. There used to be a few more such people in my TL, but they all seem to have vanished or stopped posting in the past year, and generally it feels there's precious little interest in this topic on Mastodon... (I too have a feeling, either my own photography went drastically downhill over the past 3-4 months or people in my circles are just less and less interested in it, or maybe don't get to see it all... Hello self-doubt! 😩)

Anyhow, if you are interested in these topics, please like or boost so I can follow back! Much appreciated! It's very hard to find peers in such niche topics whilst on a tiny single user instance...

Ps. Also, if not Mastodon, any other communities/forums you might be able to recommend?

Woman in Dior Hat with Martini (Lisa Fonssagrives-Penn), New York, 1952. Photograph by Irving Penn.

Her name is Lisa Fonssagrives. Born in Sweden in 1911, she was trained from childhood as a painter, sculptor, and ballet dancer — and she went on to become the first supermodel in history. She was also the love of Irving Penn’s life.-- Phillips
