Klein, Ron
Alaskan Photographer and Photo Historian

The Photograph—how it was made in the 1870s
Using antique equipment, Juneau photographer Ron Klein will be giving a brief show and tell demonstration of the collodion wet plate photography process invented in 1851. Because of the nature of this type of photography, part of his presentation will need to be performed outside. Ron is very knowledgeable in early photographic methods and will also conduct a question and answer session concerning anything photographic such as dating original photos, identifying vintage cameras and lenses, or explain methods as to how it was done in the old days.
