Photography in the Studio and in the Field

Photography in the Studio and in the Field is a work by Edward M. Estabrooke. It serves as an extensive practical manual and companion to the professional and the amateur photographer. Excerpt: «To accomplish this end we will take the reader as an apprentice, and commencing at the beginning, instruct him in that knowledge he would have to acquire were he an actual apprentice in a photographic studio, working the wet collodion process, after which an equally full course of instruction will follow for the dry plate and other new processes, both for negative making and for printing.»
