Warning: this short video is more about dye-transfer technique than Eggleston's art. But it's great anyway. Eggleston is my absolute favorite as far as American photography is concerned (call it street photography or artistic photography, not so important after all). The more I look at his works, the deeper I go - even after many years. Thanks. And greetings from Poland.

outstanding!!!

We must return to truly investing our interest and our money into these rare forms of technical artistry. I truly value this process. I hope they have apprentices who will take on the task in the future. There's the Frisson process in Paris too which creates wonderful prints. I only hope AI disgusts us in the near future and we return to film, cibachrome, dye transfer, and silver gelatin.

I worked at two different photography labs in the Boston area in the late '80s/early '90s that did dye transfer printing. I really wish I had kept a few sample prints for my own collection! The prints were far superior than C-Prints and Cibachromes. I wonder how they match up to modern day inkjet prints printed on the best papers that we have today.

Art only needs to be interesting.
