It is always interesting to me showing you something that you can normally never see. The perception of the human eye is limited to a narrow range of the wavelength of electromagnetic waves called light.

I've made a weekend wetplate collodion portrait session on Artbázis (Budapest) where I invited my photographer buddies. I've made 17 portraits during this two days, one photograph from each friend (25 minutes each including the shot and development), like in the ancient times in the fairs.
This project is not only about how things look like two days after Valentine's day, how love fading away if we not take care of it, but very personal too. Making this project helped me to process the lost of the love and bury my dreams.
