    Jim.. You should add the American Society of Media Photographers, ASMP’s website at http://www.asmp.org and the local NorCal chapter http://www.asmpnorcal.org to this list for those that want to learn about the business end of the art..
    NorCal has a lot of very cool events ( about 1 a month) and I can get you on the list if you want. Franz Lanting, John Sexton, Art Wolf and manny others have spoken to our group in SF and they have wprkshops and how toos like Bill Atkinson on printing and Ed Kashi and photographers and mixed media.
    Also, I’d sure like to get together with ya soon.

    A comment on the “Oldest Color Photograph”
    Carbro printing was adapted to color in 1868..
    check wikipedia at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_print
    It’s still pretty amazing they could do that then.. The Carbro rpint was supremely archival for color, but pretty complex to execute.

    Thanks for the Nor Cal ASMP link, Bob.

    As far as the first color photographs are concerned, we are talking about the same images. The caveat is that it is one of the first color photographs utilizing the subtractive (CMY) method that survives to this day.

    Note that the header reads “The First Color Photographs.” The information is not erroneous.

    The photo in question is, to my knowledge, the oldest surviving color (carbon) print.

    Just didn’t dig around enough… Was intrigued, because I have had done, back in the early 90s some “Ever Color” prints that were a technically updated Carbro color process and so have a little history with the process, though I never tried it in the darkroom (the original that is).. It’s supposed to be awesome in B&W.
