This isn't my video. But this photographer is amazing. Daguerreotypes were the first commercially successful photographic process. In this video you'll see Takashi Arai make a daguerreotype plate out out a silver copper plate, take a photo, and develop it. The details on the plate are out of this world.
The photographer uses heated mercury vapor to develop the daguerreotype. That's very ballsy and risky.
