The Tintype Photographer Who Works Out of a 1938 Harley-Davidson Sidecar
Rob Gibson is a tintype photographer who works in what he calls “the world’s fastest darkroom.” After photographing vintage motorcycle and car events, he develops his tintypes in a 1938 Harley-Davidson sidecar that he zooms around with.
“I do wet plate collodion photography, the same process that was done in the 1860s that requires coating a glass or tin photographic plate sensitizing it, rushing it to the camera, making the exposure, rushing it back to the darkroom and developing it before it dries out,” Gibson tells PetaPixel. “This process was done from the 1850s up into the 1880s when eventually dry plate and film took over.

THANK YOU
I just wanted to thank all of the members that went out of their way this past Saturday to attend the event at Rockhill Community and Greenfield. That morning at breakfast, Tawmy and I were talking about the fact that we did not know how all of this would play out and how many would be in attendance at either event. As usual, IV HOG does not disappoint !!! We arrived at Rockhill and there were already several bikes there !!! We rolled in with about another 9 or so, bringing the total bikes there to about 15 or so. Continue reading

Hogs and Dogs 2017
Hogs and Dogs in upon us once again. As I have done in the past, I am putting together a breakfast ride prior to the event. Please see below for the details of the ride alone and the IVHOG home page for the Hogs and Dogs event itself. I would like to give a special thank you to Bill Lichtner for arranging this event with the assisted living facility. This is a fantastic event for some very special people who are in desperate need for some diversion in their everyday lives. So please come out, if not for the breakfast and ride, but for the Hogs and Dogs event itself and see the glow in the residents eyes as we ride in together and visit with them. Take advantage of this great opportunity for our club to give back to the community. Continue reading
