A Dream Within a Dream: Frozen in Time

I manipulated these images from the Twin Cities burlesque scene with a digital process that imitates the wet plate collodion process invented by Frederick Scott Archer in 1850. Each image bears a title taken from the list of silent movies in the Dawson Film Find.
