For this vlog I've wrote this text:
What is the essence of a space?
What is the essence that is the first thing you feel, but you are not aware of it? No, it’s not the temperature, it’s not the light, it’s not the view, but nevertheless the essence is not esoteric, it is here and now, it’s even quantifiable, you can measure it. I wouldn’t say it’s beyond our senses and I wouldn’t dare to say it is within the reach of our senses, but it is definitely beyond our awareness.
What is the essence of a space? The essence of a space lies in its emptiness in its spaciousness. You can not touch empty space, you can not smell it and certainly you can’t see the empty space. All you can see is where the empty space ends, like the walls, the furniture, the windows, the doors. The essence lies on the opposite side of the spectrum of our senses, yet we all know it exists.
If I remember correctly Susan Sontag wrote something along those lines about the photography as a medium. Photography as a medium is invisible to the eye. All you can see is what the photograph is representing to you. A face of a loved one, a memory of an event, a tree, a landscape, etc. The photograph as the medium is invisible. If you turn the photograph around all you see is the paper, the carrier, the photograph “disappears”.
I guess that’s the subconscious drive of my quest into hand-made photography processes. I love to hold a container of silvernitrate crystals in one hand and a pack of clear glass plates in the other, feeling the weight and letting the buzz spread from my hands upwards. Feeling the potential of the images that will be born out of that weight. I love looking at my hands holding the raw materials and feeling thankfulness for what these hands can do, how these hands will serve this vision, this potential. The handmade photography is my portal to the essence of my being, the essence of my existence. I can not describe it with words, I can not even photograph it. But what I do hope is that my photographs will serve to the viewer as a pointer into a certain direction, that my photographs will leave a crumb trail to the essence that I feel, the essence that I am. Perhaps some of you can already see the essence in art or some other beautiful craft or even in any aspect of the ordinary daily life. If you do, the essence that you feel is is not in the photograph, it is not out from this world, the essence is inside you.
My father died about a month ago. In his last days I’ve seen in his eyes the essence of his being. The being stripped away from life’s roles, without any expectations for the future and without any memories of the past. The peacefulness and kindness radiated from his eyes inspite the physical pain. In the last days of my father’s life I’ve recognized the essence of us, human beings.
Thank you!
1) A fresh 9% silvernitrate bath
2) Somewhat used silvernitrate bath, but filtered and with topped up to 9%
3) Boiled only with water, sunned filtered and topped up to 9%
4) Boiled with baking soda, sunned, filtered and topped up to 9%
The best result are given by the fourth silvernitrate bath, but you will decide if it's worth the effort.
Years ago I've made a vlog about silvernitrate maintenance and here is the link: youtube.com/watch?v=BgD7B0dABHI&t=1s
I will continue with this kind of research for my wet plate collodion manual.

I've decided to show a bit of my lifestyle after the break-up instead of playing smart and giving empty advices. I should mention in the vlog, but I didn't verbally. I'm using this experience to become a better person which frankly means, I'm doing my personal inspection separating my own behaviour patterns between those that are making me stronger and those that are makes me weaker. A selection! Like Jocko Willink would say, "discipline equals freedom!"

The photograph In Christina’s World is a part of the exhibition A New Earth / Silence. In the silence and isolation of deep forest I am dealing with the eternal spiritual questions. The image talks about one’s patterns that are destructive and negative, but we can’t part with them because they are part of who we are and they are representing a known, safe result, whereas breaking the negative patterns and changing our lives is frightening and unsecure. It is a human condition, I am pretty certain everyone understand what the image is about.

I've been a photographer all my life, I've studied photography at the best colleges (FAMU, Prague and LCP, London) and took workshops from the greatest masters of our time (Martin Parr, Duane Michals, Zizola, Stephen Gill, Paul Graham, Calvin Grier, Mark Osterman,...). I even worked for a year also with Oliviero Toscani at Fabrica and James Mollison was my roomate. Olivia Arthur / Magnum was my classmate at LCP. Anyway, what I want to say is to shout from the top of my lungs, I've published the new book! And this book consists of everything that I know about photography and it tells the story about the path I was on for the past two years.
The book will be hardbound and it is available as a pre-order for another week. The purchase is possible through my website at borutpeterlin.com/shop

My guitar playing is getting better, doesn't it? I will tell you the truth, in the last five months I got to the day six of ten day guitar course for beginners. Do you understand what I am trying to say? I do it for the pure pleasure without any ambitions, except to enjoy it. Lots of people are watching this vlog and are being frustrated for not being a professional artist or at least a professional photographer. Why? If it makes you happy, do it for your own pleasure and enjoy the snail slow process of progress, just make it sure you are enjoying it and you got this! I bet you are much better in photography then I am at playing a guitar. I am sure of it! Do that and remember TOPSHIT HAPPENS!

Borut
this vlog is about my cabin and the plans for 2022. Obviously it will demand a lot of attention (read money), so consequently I will need to make some changes in my life. A wisdom of dr. Dispenza is if you want a change your life you got to change! And so I do. I'm passionate chess player and although I am not especially good (my best rating at chess.com in 1780), I do play a lot of games, I do spend a lot of time playing chess. I've decided to cut that time and use it for something else. All of my early memories of a bonfire include a guitar and singing and because I don't know any, I've decided to learn to play a guitar. Now I think I'll quit my photography career and become an aging rock star. As ancient Greeks were saying, TOPSHIT happens!

OK, about this vlog. It is short. It represents my second attempt to make a print out of chimney soot and I can see some areas of improvement, that's why I have not shared my recipes. I can tell you that in the past I've tried to do that, but I've failed and give up because I didn't found a solution hot to get the air bubbles out and at the same time prevent soot sedimenting. The solution I found is ultrasound cleaner. That brakes all the bubbles in a minute, before soot have time to sediment. Also my material is much harder to work with, in comparison with commercial Kramer Lamp Black product. I have some theories how to improve the solubility of gelatine. Also I can make smaller particles of carbon. I will share all my information when I will feel that I've figured out all the characteristics. Nevertheless I am very very satisfied with my carbon print.

This vlog is a belated Black Friday vlog. No rush is a rule in my life. Sometimes I brake that rule, but I did not broke it this time. I do what I can do and I do a lot of work, but my condition is to do it peacefully. Hence, I'm publishing my Black Friday vlog on Sunday at 22:36, he, he, he... Hey, nevertheless I've sold a lot of prints and I thank you very much! This is my dream, to make a living with what I know the best, what I love the most, that is with my art photography.
Some may say I am selling my work cheap, but I tell you I do not intend to keep all those millions of euros under my bed, thinking for how much I did NOT sale them. I don't care, I love my job, I love to work. And I want to promote analogue photography in the best possible way. So if you want to have the best kind of silver-gelatin print the I can do, it is here with Black Friday discount.
OK, thank you for your attention, thank you for all the comments thank you for your for support and may the topshit be with you!

FILOZOF
Vse je kliše, a vendar se vrti.
Če kocka pade, se kaj spremeni?
Ne reci nič, ker vem – vse mimo gre.
Naj zgrabim dan, da mi še on pove?
Ko grem kdaj vase, sam svoj svet iskat,
kaj je resnica, vprašam kot Pilat.
Pridi kdaj pome z ognjem v očeh,
čeprav vsak dan vse bolj mi gre na smeh.
Je res kliše, ko praviš, ljubim te?
Ko dvomim, sem – zdaj vem, minilo je.
Včasih sem glas, včasih apostrof,
spet drugič v sodu skriti filozof.
Zate sem dih, stran nepopisana,
brez vetra jadram tja, kjer si doma.
Reci besedo, da se ustavi svet
in dam ti tisto, česar nimaš, spet.

It took too long from my last post. After seeing this vlog, you know why. It was really an intense period of my life. And after this exhibition I had a week long workshop at Univerza Nova Gorica. Anyway, here it is. Please let me know what you think about the show. Some of you are following my vlogs regularly and you could see how this project developed.
The exhibition is in ZRC, Novi Trg2, Ljubljana, Slovenia and it's open until 17.7.2021

Miha Turk is a student of Media Production and he is assisting me for the past month. As the final result of his work with me I challenged him to make an eBay auction of his art. Since he's really great assistant we did the best we could in the making of this fine art print. Now the print is on sale and the profit will go to Miha. Thank you for watching and supporting Miha, at his creative path.
May the topshit be with you!

About my project Feels Like home.
Five years ago I had a divorce and break up of 21 years long relationship. I've started a project Feels Like Home where I'm domesticating the places I find myself in. My favourite method of domestication are flower bouquets and ritual called wet plate photography. Art is bringing peace to me. In the next stage I will make carbon prints from these negatives.

this is my newest photobook reaction, AFGHANISTAN: CHRONOTOPIA - Simon Norfolk. It's another classic photobook that inspired me hugely.
I hope you will enjoy the vlog, although you could sense I was tired. I have an assistant now and I need to reorganise my workday. I will open a new channel for photobook reviews and keep this channel focused on my art and the darkroom witchcraft. I am taking this job as a vlogger more and more seriously, since from the beginning of the pandemic I am making about 90% of income from my art and youtube vlogs are my main way of marketing.
Anyway, I have already record a new vlog with my art. It's from a project Feels Like Home. By the end of the week I'll publish it.
May the topshit be with you,

I started this vlog to draw comparisons about Jan van Eyck painting of Arnolfini Portrait and Dougie Wallace, but then I've edit it out, because I want to focus on photography. Nevertheless both artists are dealing with the same subject, rich showing their wealth in an attempt of gaining status. If Van Eyeck's painting does serve good to the Arnolfini's status, Wallace is slashing the myths of the rich, so the viewer feels sorry for these kind of people. Wonderful stories of art!
Let me know if you like this format, it will take another week or so to go back to the woods, so until then, I might make another photobook reaction.

About my project Feels Like home.
Five years ago I had a divorce and break up of 21 years long relationship. I've started a project Feels Like Home where I'm domesticating the places I find myself in. My favourite method of domestication are flower bouquets and ritual called wet plate photography. Art is bringing peace to me. In the next stage I will make carbon prints from these negatives.
Here is a playlist with vlogs about this project:

So in this vlog I'm making a research on subbing glass plates with albumen. It took me the whole week to do it, but I've learned a lot. I have in mind several tests to really understand the mechanism behind the wet plate collodion process. My manual will be about the wet plate collodion NEGATIVE, not the positive. Almost everyone who practice the process today, works as wet plate collodion POSITIVE (ambrotype or tintype), but my manual will be about the negative variation of the process. The best way of making a photograph, the topshit way, of course.
For the notification email, please send me an email on topshitphotography@gmail.com
If you are interested in the basic wet plate collodion manual, I warmly recommend Osterman's manual: http://collodion.org/pubs.html

I'm finishing this 2020 and for the grand finale I'm buying a dream cottage in my dream woodland of Kočevski Rog, Slovenia! Vaccination has started all over the world and thanks to science, I expect our lives to return back to normal again. I'm definitely ready! I look forward to new challenges that are in front of me.
This cottage will be a photo-centre, an artist residence and artists in resistance headquarters. If the circumstances will allow, I plan to have another Woodland Beyond Photography event in the last week of July 2021, so mark the dates. Like this one: youtube.com/watch?v=i6iiTVqvw-U&t=6s
In my vlog I'm mentioning my project Feels Like Home and here is one vlog about it: youtube.com/watch?v=G_4cU3_PcY8
PS: I'm sorry for advertising in the middle of the vlog. I've switched it off. Only at the beginning and perhaps I'll switch that off too. Free adds vlog. What do you think?

Anyway I skipped two ground glass tricks in my vlog. If in emergency, when you traveled to a location and you brake the ground glass, you can make one on the spot.
1) the best is to have some silicon carbide with you and you can make one in 30 minutes.
2) If you don't have the silicon carbide, go and buy finest sanding paper you can get. Most likely it will be too coarse, so you can add some ash from fire place or some other material, like salt with oversaturated water or if you are wet plate collodion photographer, then you have on you the ferrous sulphate and if you add very little water, it will make a fine grinding powder.
3) if you are a wet plate collodion photographer, then you cut your glass to the size of the ground glass, pour collodion on it and sub it into silvernitrate for two minutes. That will make the glass milky in just the right way to work as a good ground glass.
OK, now this is done, now I can start preparing for my epic Christmas special! Subscribe, recommend the channel, or even support it by buying a book or becoming a patreon! Either way... Topshit happens!
