Anyone out there interested in alternative photographic processes?

Not exactly film photography, but though I might run this question by here anyway.
Having been on this site for just a few weeks, I haven't been able to find any topics regarding alternative processes (palladium prints, wet plate collodion, cyanotypes, salt prints, etc.) and I was wondering if anyone here had an interest in them as well. I am just starting to experiment with Van Dyke Brown Prints and Cyanotypes myself and would love to see work from others with similar interests!

I once participated in a tintype photography workshop - I've always wanted to continue with the process, but have never gotten around to it. Maybe someday!

Wow... Thought those techniques were dead...

I'm open to learn about where all came from, I'm only 16.

Not widely used, but certainly not dead either! It's a lot of fun and, depending on what process you're using, can be quite inexpensive. If you're looking to experiment or try something new, you should look into it!
