Most probably know of John's work and lifestyle, but I came across this article which was more robust than most, so I thought I'd share.

Very cool, I found out about John Coffer thru an article about Robb Kendrick. Robb learned the art of tintypes from Coffer. Nice article, thanks! http://www.robbkendrick.com/

For the first time in weeks I had 10 minutes spare to read these articles without someone like 'The Man' or 'The Boss' creeping up on me at work and without Jacqui hinting strongly that my time might be better spent decorating our house rather than putting in some hours on Filmwasters....anyway, I'm mighty glad I was able to check these links out. Awesome stuff. Coffer's subject matter isn't always for me, but I really like what he's doing, where it's coming from and some of the shots are truly great. This was one of my faves:
